Presidents Address 2024/5

Welcome to Rotary Club of Chestfield

My name is Sue Vargyas and I start my second Year as President on 1st July 2024.  Let's hope it doesn't end like my first in 2019/20 with Covid!

Friendship and fellowship is our Rotary motto and I hope to follow our 2023/24 Presidents very successful year by raising funds for my 3 Charities:  Pilgrims Hospice, East Kent Carers and Red Zebra. I know I will have the support of my Vice President, Chestfield resident, Ian Small, and all our other hard-working members. 

We start off with a very exciting venture joining all other Canterbury District Rotary Clubs, with a stand at The Canterbury City Show on the weekend of July 20th and 21st in Westgate Gardens Canterbury 10am till 5pm on both days, why not pop along and meet us.

We have already planned our Annual Charity Golf Tournament at Chestfield Golf Club on 6th September 2024, Quiz nights on 9th November 2024 and 12^th April 2025, with many more fundraising ideas in the pipeline.

We continue as a club to support our great work Internationally with Walk4Water on 21^st March 2025 with local Primary Schools, Shelterbox, TWAM (Tools with a Mission), our ongoing collection of disability aids and Rotary Internationals End Polio Now project.

Locally we continue to support Whitstable & Tankerton Hospital and any other local groups that need our support.
