President Jim Walker was in the chair at
last week's meeting of the Rotary Club. There was no speaker so the club
attended to any business at hand and finalised arrangements for the coffee
morning this Saturday in Trinity Parish Church Hall. The club has decided
to donate the profits from this event to the East African Famine Appeal to an
area which is suffering from drought and famine and are well worthy of the folk
of Hawick's support.
The club has acquired their own laptop and
projector for use with visiting speakers and Ron Sutherland gave a demonstration
of the uses it can be put to with a slide show projecting all that Rotary stands
for and what it represents and it will be used at the coffee morning for this
purpose.
