President’s Message
Once again, we welcome you to Rotary’s 26th Annual Holiday House Tour. Each year, we are thrilled when we hear our visitors, and their family and friends tell us that they look forward to touring our beautiful homes decorated for the holiday season. If this is your first time, welcome!! We hope you will keep coming back – every year has new surprises!
There are hundreds of people, Rotary members and non-members alike, who play an important role in the success of the Holiday House Tour.
Our heartfelt thanks go out to all of them:
-
Our wonderful NOTL’ers who open their homes to welcome our visitors.
-
The talented decorators who make those homes so beautifully festive.
-
Our generous sponsors and supporters who provide complimentary goods and services as well as significant financial contributions.
-
Our Holiday House Tour Committee who work diligently year-round to ensure the success of this event.
-
Our large team of volunteers who work tirelessly to make sure that the Holiday House Tour operates efficiently and safely.
-
And finally, thanks to you, our outstanding patrons, who travel from near and far, in any weather, to join our Holiday House Tour event.
This year, our goal is to raise more than $200,000. These funds will support local community projects, international projects, and youth programs. Rotary exists to serve the people who live in communities, near and far, who need a helping hand. Your generosity makes a positive and meaningful impact, both in the Niagara Region and in communities around the world.
Enjoy the tour and our delightful town. We wish you all the best of the holiday season and know that by being here, you are making a difference.
Cindy Grant, President 2025-2026

Rotary Club of Niagara-on-the-Lake
Rotary is where neighbours, friends, and problem-solvers share ideas, join leaders, and take action to create lasting change. Through Rotary clubs, people from all continents and cultures form friendships and professional connections while making a difference in their backyards and around the world.
Club activities, social events, and volunteer projects in picturesque Niagara-on-the-Lake offer networking opportunities that build personal and professional connections – and Rotarians can extend those networks by visiting other clubs around the globe.
The mandate of the Local Service Committee is to use our members’ talents and skills to identify, plan, and carry out projects within our community.
Our club has been involved in numerous international projects from eradicating polio, providing shelter, clean water and food, to improving medical facilities, and many more projects around the world. We have made a positive impact on thousands of lives.
Rotary International encourages us to develop projects that address priority needs identified by the communities they serve, to help people to help themselves, and to ensure projects are environmentally sustainable.
To learn more about our Club and view the projects we support, visit niagaraonthelakerotary.ca. If you are interested in service to others and would like more information, please email info@niagaraonthelakerotary.ca.
We hold noon and evening meetings with presentations and social events, open to friends and family to participate.
The Holiday House Tour attracts people from all over the world. While we love that the tour has such a wonderful reputation, we are also aware of the carbon footprint that creates. In an effort to offset that footprint, our Club has donated to Land Care Niagara to plant trees in the Region.
