Rotarians from the Thornhill and District Club recently welcomed former Dumfries Police Officer and now student soprano Claudia Wood to a meeting of the club. Claudia, who was raised in Sanquhar, has a strong bond with the Thornhill Rotary Club. The Wallace Hall educated Claudia represented the Thornhill club in several Rotary Young Musician of the Year Competitions over the years, however, perhaps the most significant bond with the club occurred when a few years ago she participated in the Thornhill Rotary Charity event Nithsdale’s Got Talent at the Friars Carse Hotel. On the bill with Claudia that evening was headliner Emily Smith who had signed up the services of a young sound engineer for the event and whom met Claudia for the first time. The rest as they say is history. The two have now very recently tied the knot as husband and wife.
