People don’t care how much you know, they want to know how much you care!
Rose Romita, a well known downtown local figure, came to Barrie 27 years ago. As a single mother of twins, Rose felt that Barrie was an excellent community to work, live, & raise her children. Rose loved running her own business & opened her first restaurant on Maple Ave.
"Rosie" as she was affectionately known has operated a number of restaurants & businesses in downtown Barrie.
In 1995, Rose held her first Christmas Dinner for the homeless, serving 50 dinners. With the help of volunteers, corporate donors, & local media, Rose's Christmas, Easter, & Thanksgiving Dinners have become an eagerly awaited event by both volunteers, & those who are graciously thankful for the hearty meals on a special occasion which is currently serving 800 meals & growing!
It has become a community dinner that everyone from all walks of life have joined the party- homeless, single individuals, seniors, international students- anyone & everyone looking to join as one is welcome.
I have been a resident of Barrie since 1991 and a business owner downtown for the past 25 years and I have the knowledge of what it takes to be able to live work and play in the City Of Barrie.
I have been named one of the top 25 Women in Barrie from GoodLife Magazine, received the Heart & Soul Award and Legends & Legacy Award.
I was also awarded one of 12 Queens Diamond Jubilee Metals.
As your city councillor I will continue to listen and hear all of your concerns, to attend all neighbourhood meetings and to be active in City Hall.
I will continue to bring the community together.
To put you first and listen to your opinions and concerns and keep you informed of all issues
