Handover and Welcome to our new member Phil Payne

Halfway through the Rotary year and the outgoing President Bernard handed-over to the incoming President Malcolm, the third President of the four for this year.

Outgoing President Bernard thanked the members for their support and enthusiasm over the last three months.  He welcomed Malcolm as our new President saying. 'This is his 18^th year as a Rotarian during which time he has been a dedicated President, Treasurer, Committee Chair and an active and loyal member. He always gives his best so I know that he will make an excellent President!'

Incoming Pres Malcolm thanked Immediate Past President Bernard for his good work for the last three months, the third time that he had been President of our Club.

Malcolm then had the pleasure of welcoming Phil Payne as a new member of our Club. A sentiment endorsed by all our members.
