President Gavin’s Update on the run-up to Christmas
As you will be aware, there is a lot happening with your Rotary Club over the next few weeks so I thought it might be helpful to outline the details and who is responsible for what.
Tuesday 29th November – Information Evening
An opportunity to invite friends and colleagues to an evening where they can ask questions about Rotary in a casual atmosphere and without commitment. AG Roland Bailie, President Gavin and President Elect James will be on hand to give some pointers and answer any questions.

Our annual black tie bash is being held at Bangor Golf Club this year and I hope it will be as memorable an evening as usual.
