A great meeting today- welcoming 8 new Rotarians!

- Welcomed as Rotarians:
- Current President of the club, Keith Bigwood, spoke to welcome the new members and to remind us of the purpose of Rotary/like-minded people and the good for the community.

- Kathryn talked about Moonraker (Sat 5 October) and asked for any volunteers.
- Kathryn also reminded the breakfast members that if they wanted to get involved in any of the evening club events then they were more than welcome and could “ sign up” to come along. This would be on a ‘pay as you go’ basis. The main club schedule will be circulated to the breakfast members too (next evening meeting is Monday 8th April at Oake Manor Golf Club and is an SGM/Business meeting at Oake Manor Golf Club 7pm for 7.30pm start)
