PRESIDENT'S COLUMN

 

Hello, Members and our Rotary Friends receiving this eBulletin. 
 
Another small turnout on Monday(due to numerous people on holidays), but we were pleasantly surprised with a  visit from the busy Michael McQueen.  
 
Again reminders , as per Mark's email, I would ask you to consider nominations for Pride of Workmanship and please indicate if you will attend the two meetings mid-may. Monday 15th our visit to CANTEEN - names to Kate , and Tuesday May 23rd our dinner at Northbridge names to Tom.  
 
There will be no Zoom meeting next week, and the Last Monday of the month dinner is replaced by Tuesday 23rd dinner.
 
Have a great week. Looking forward to seeing you at Canteen. 
 
Yours in Rotary Service
President Ross
