Visit to Rotary Douai - Oct 2016

One day raid to renew old friendships at our contact club in Douai, Northern France

Tuesday 6th October 2016

Six club members visited our contact club of Douai in France where we received a warm welcome from our French friends.

En route to France. You may wonder about the pictures taken on the 'Shuttle'? Richard introduced us to a game of 'last man standing' in which each of us tried to balance a £1 coin on the train floor and the last coin standing up won the pot! Trust a Banker to find ways of maximising income!

Welcome from the President of Rotary Douai

President Charles responds

Robert Barnes adds a few words ... in French

The hope from the visit will be to re-kindle the strong contact we enjoyed with Douai in previous years and not only to participate in exchange visits - but also to work together in the spirit of Rotary International Fellowship
