Again we were pleased to welcome team entries from all seven of the primary schools within the Bridge of Don Community.
After a close and hard-fought competition, the Danestone side enjoyed a well-earned victory.
Together with other groups, we marshalled the customer car parking for the Christmas tree sales at the forest and collected a generous amount for local charities.
DetailsWe visited the training facilities, received a briefing on the principles of flight and took a turn at operating a simulator.
DetailsThe Rotary Club of Aberdeen Balgownie were at the Danestone Gala on Saturday 6th July. We are a local group of volunteers who raise money for charity and help local community groups. We ran a "Guess the Teddy's Birthday" competition to raise money.
DetailsThe Defibrillator unit provided by our club has been installed beside the Scotmid Co-Op on Jesmond Drive.
DetailsBalgownie Rotarian Alex Bowes took part in a sponsored walk in company with a small herd of highland cattle.
The event was organised by members of the Rotary Club of Aberdeen St. Fittick and followed a portion of the route known as the Fungle Road.
Visitors and new members are always welcome.
