Since 1951 the Rotary Club of Ottawa has sponsored 'Adventure in Citizenship', a program that brings together youth from across Canada for a four day workshop   
in Ottawa that includes tours, lectures, discussions and social events designed to enhance their understanding and appreciation of Canadian citizenship. Public figures including former Governor General Adrienne Clarkson, the Right Hon. Joe Clark, and the Hon. Ed Broadbent participated in the program as students. See the  video to the left of this post.
 
Our club has participated in this program by sponsoring a high school student in previous years and we plan to continue to participate in 2019-2020. Student applications and evaluations are currently underway!
