Senior Vice-President Charles Keeper welcomed everyone to the meeting.
Tonight’s Interesting Rotary Information highlighted a campaign – “Keep Scotland Beautiful – Summer Clean 2021”
This project will run from 28th May to 20th June. Rotary Clubs in all three districts in Scotland are being encouraged to participate by organising a litter picking event or some other community project. To assist with the planning, KSB will produce a Clean-up Scotland supporters’ pack and communications pack.
It was thought that our Club could organise a litter picking project in our local community.
