Meal at Girton Golf Club & Talk. Speaker Host - Burman, Cashier - Vicky B.


Today we are delighted welcome Rotary International Director Brian Stoyel to our Club meeting.

OPEN TO ALL D1080 Rotarians and their guests      £17 a head

Brian has had years of experience in Rotary and was full of anecdotes while having a wide perspective of our worldwide movement.  He was a relaxed and approachable speaker who was a delight to listen to.  Our event was much enjoyed by all. It was very nice to see so many District Rotarians, members from other local clubs and some of our new satellite members too.  

Our Enschede friends had just sent us some of their top quality dutch Tulip bulbs for polio (a great bargain of 25 per box for £10)  and they proved very popular and raised over £300 for Foundation.
