Proud Tradition Continues – Bury Mayor becomes a Honorary Rotarian!
Bury Rotary President John Cooper said “Thank you Mayor for continuing the proud tradition of your predecessors and agreeing to become an Honorary Member of the Rotary Club of Bury and hence to join us in the Worldwide Fellowship and Service of Rotary. Your invitation was made because Bury Rotarians believe that your qualities, experience and expertise fit you to interpret and impart the message of Rotary across the Metropolitan Borough of Bury, but also to the wider community.
The principles and practices of Rotary, the privileges and obligations of a Rotarian have much in common with your work as both a Ward Councillor and as The Worshipful, the Mayor of Bury. We are confident that you will give this Club the benefits of your previous considerable Council experience to further strengthen the fellowship of this Club, and thus to help us serve even more effectively our local community and the wider world.”
