How Wounded Warriors Support Veterans and 1st Responders with PTSD
![]() Dave Kervin is an Ambassador for Wounded Warriors Canada (WWC), a national mental health service provider dedicated to serving Trauma Exposed Organizations, Trauma Exposed Professionals and their families.

| 11:45 AM Guest Speaker Megan Murphy | Nov 24, 2025 11:45 AM |
Wild Irish Geese
![]() "It feels like writing this play has been a culmination of my life’s experiences and obsessions. Having lost both of my parents as a young woman, I grappled with the concepts of legacy, of starting over, of identity, of history and roots and we are all somehow tethered to the past by an invisible umbilical cord. It has been a deep honour to explore these concepts through the stories of the people who risked so much to begin again in this new world."Join us as Megan Murphy shares her story about researching and writing the 4th Line Theatre play, Wild Irish Geese.Please Note: Our meetings aren’t open to the general public, so attendance is limited to visiting Rotarians, invited guests of a member, the guest of the speaker, or those who have been invited by our membership chair.
