Last Wednesday saw our first
Club Assembly for this Rotary year.
Each Director gave his aims for
the year which were well received. Questions were not numerous although some
forceful views were expressed mainly regarding attendance and fundraising.
Differences of opinion emerged regarding the emphasis that should be placed on
straight out fundraising as a community service. All taken in a spirit of
goodwill and a good meeting (and a good meal) ensued.
Connie Galletta outlined some
initiatives for the social scene which augers well for the coming year.
We welcome ADG Peter Davidson to
our meeting tonight. Peter has been a great help in the lead up to the
Changeover and I express my thanks to him.
Welcome too to Father Columba
McBeth Green who has travelled quite some distance to be with us tonight. We
look forward to his address.
A reminder to check that your
details on the inside of the new bulletin cover are correct. If you missed
last week, Secretary Roger has a few copies.
For now – Enjoy rotary
