Keith is our new President

At our first meeting in July, outgoing President Andrew Barwood handed over the chain of office to Keith Thomas


At our meeting of 2nd July Rotarian Keith Thomas was welcomed as the new President of Watton Rotary Club. Outgoing President Andrew Barwood seemed rather relieved to be passing the chain of office to Keith.

Keith also passed on the President Elect jewel to Roy Ivory, who will succeed Keith next year. The President's lady's jewel also passed from Karen Barwood  to Linda Thomas.

Keith thanked Andrew for all his hard work during the previous year, presenting him with a certificate in recognition of this.  He undertook to continue his predecessor's work in leading the Club's support of the local community to the best of his ability.
