Weekly meeting

Thu, Dec 3rd 2020 at 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm

Our own Roy Challand was our speaker this evening

We were joined at this evening's Zoom meeting by visiting Rotarians from St Ives (Alan Smith) and St Neots (Gordon Johnson), making our number of attendees 16 in all. Roy entertained us with a talk entitled 'My life in badges', in which he described the various badges that have marked milestones in his life. Pictures of all the badges he acquired were shown on our screens. The first was a Cubs badge followed by school badges and various badges from army cadets to Air Force Cadets, moving through the Air Training Corps among others, ending with Rotary's Paul Harris Award, the one which Roy said gave him most pride.

Roy was warmly thanked for his insightful and humorous talk.

Community

We seek ways to serve our local community wherever we can, whether this is giving of our time or in making monetary donations.
