Roseau, Dominica – June 26, 2025- The Rotary Club of Dominica is proud to announce the successful completion of the first phase of its community service project, the construction of the Massacre Walkway near the Massacre Primary School. What was once a hazardous dirt path has now been transformed into a concrete, secured, and safe walkway that benefits the students, teachers, and residents of the Canefield and Massacre communities.
This much-needed project was undertaken to improve the safety and accessibility of the heavily trafficked path, especially for young children walking to and from school. The previously uneven and dangerous route posed a significant risk to users, particularly during the rainy season. Today, thanks to Rotary’s intervention, the route is now paved, structurally reinforced, and safely accessible for all.
The project, which cost approximately EC$26,000, was fully funded and executed from donations to the Rotary Club of Dominica as part of its ongoing commitment to community development and youth safety. Work continues on the next phase of the project, which includes painting the railings and installing appropriate signage to further enhance the walkway’s safety and appeal.
“This project is a powerful example of what service above self looks like, through social intervention” said Rotary Club President Luana Laurent “We are honored to have played a part in making our community safer, especially for the children who use this route every day.”
The Rotary Club extends its gratitude to partners and patrons of The Original Souse and Punch, the club’s fundraiser, and volunteers who contributed their time and support to make this project a reality.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
