Club Rotario Los Barriles Cabo de Este
3 – 5 YEAR VISION
After the three meetings with the club (one with the club in entirety, one with boards from current and next year, and one open to the entire club), the following lists of projects are those that have been identified and considered for our three to five-year vision.  We will continue to assess the needs / seek the areas where we can “…meet the health and wellbeing needs of the East Cape community with a focus on the youth…”.  The projects listed below are those identified within these meetings on how we can help our community within the 3 pillars that we have identified:  Education, Healthcare, and Fitness. Thank you to all who worked so hard on this map for our future.
