A 'home' round in the inter-club District Quiz (Bowl Competition!) Note meeting this week is on Wednesday, not Thursday.
Past President Sandy Bannerman welcomed
members to last week's meeting of the Rotary Club which included Harald Willner,
Kingston-upon-Thames Rotary Club and 5 Kelso Rotarians. A round of the
Rotary District quiz took place with Allan McCredie the quizmaster. Kelso
was represented by Anne Wright, Blair McDonald, Andrew Veitch and Gordon Euman
and the Hawick team was Gus Neilson, Ron Smith, Ron Sutherland and Tommy Mulvee
and Kelso ran out winners 26-22. Last week the President's Night was held
in Mansfield Clubrooms and, after a lovely meal, President Mairhi welcomed
Presidents from other Border clubs and guests to hear an excellent address by
Ian Landles in his usual inimitable and humourous style. He was
accompanied by his wife Margaret. The recent Xmas gift box scheme resulted
in over 90 boxes being dispatched to Eastern Europe families and the club want
to thank all those who assisted especially the congregation of Teviot
Church.
