Presidential Handover
1st July 2020: We welcome incoming President Richard
The 2020-2021 Rotary year starts today and our first meeting with President Richard begins.
Due to this years Covid-19 pandemic, the usual proceedings of Club Presidential Handover were not possible. So instead handover was performed in our weekly online meeting.
We are very pleased to welcome fellow Rotarian and Club member Richard Everitt as President of our Club for the 2020-2021 Rotary year. Richard takes over today from outgoing President John Loran who has lead the Club wonderfully during the last year with many achievements despite the Covid-19 pandemic. Please do visit the News page that has links to many activities that have happened during this time.
We also welcome Dave Gardner and Gill Vaughan who now take on the offices of President Elect and President Nominee respectively.
Due to lock down restrictions meaning our Club cannot meet face to face, the physical handover of regalia was done a few days ago at Lydiard Park whilst observing social distancing.
We look forward to our first face to face Club meeting with our new President as soon as lock down restrictions are eased sufficiently to allow this. In the meantime our work continues mainly in the online world.
