Nottingham Rotary Club prepares for its big birthday
Nottingham club is busy preparing for its 100th centenary in 2018. It received its charter in 1918, the same year as Derby and two years after Leicester from its mother club Edinburgh. Since then it has been responsible for 10 daughter clubs, 16 Grand-daughter clubs, 9 Great-grand-daughter clubs and one Great -great grand-daughter club, Sherwood Sunrisers.
A number of events and visitors are planned including a visit from the RI President. Nottingham want to make it a family affair and incoming President Paul Jones is hoping to run a Frog Race funding raising evening with each of the daughter clubs for the End Polio campaign. There will also be a big day out at Elvaston Castle in conjunction with Derby club on the 16th June 2018
