Member Testimonial

“My wife and I were very impressed with Rotary’s work in eradicating Polio and the fact that Bill Gates (Microsoft Founder) was prepared to donate millions of US dollars and put his trust in Rotary”

“I particularly warmed to the understanding that Rotarians recognised the priority of family, business and then Rotary in that order”

“The opportunity of putting something no matter how small back into the community that we live in and enjoy the company of like-minded people”

“I was attracted to Rotary’s international reputation and the twinning with the Dutch rotary club of Heerlen”

“This was a unique opportunity in a small town to join a worldwide club and enjoy the company of Rotarians from so many different backgrounds”

This month we had a taste of the continent as members of our twin club in Herleen, The Netherlands, visited. We also focussed on some life saving techniques with a defibrillator training session and a talk on organ donation. We rounded out with a discussion on the property business from Matt Boatright.

With Summer fading we have had some interesting speakers this month to brighten up the darker evenings. One of our newer members, Genette, gave a job talk, we heard from two of Shaftesbury Fire Station’s crew and Chris Hardiman discussed the Xmas Shoebox appeal.

After such a busy July, August has been more relaxed but no less entertaining. We started the month with a spot of Theatre at Springhead House. There was a full agenda at the business meeting and also, Tim Cook delivered a talk on the Cape to Cape tour in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

July had a busy start with our biggest event of the year, Gold Hill Fair. A strong turnout and glorious weather made for another very successful year. Also this month we had several guest speakers, welcomed a new member and celebrated a milestone for our longest serving rotarian.
