Probus members from throughout Bangor joined the Rotary Club of Bangor in an Act of Remembrance on Wednesday 9th November.
Led by war veteran Morrell Murphy, and with buglers Brian and Gary Hall providing the poignancy for the event, the Act of Remembrance has become a mainstay of the Club’s calendar.
Out thanks to PP Bill Aiken for once again organising the event.
Between the Act of Remembrance and lunch, our guest speaker, Rebecca Gordon, gave us some background to the life of local war hero Rear Admiral The Honorable EBS Bingham VC.
After lunch, President Gavin Walker announced the Club winner of the Youth Leadership Development Competition to be Amy Dempster of Glenlola Collegiate. Bangor Grammar Schools’ Mate Zoltan was a very worthy second place winner.
Amy will progress on to the Zone Final to be held at Bangor Golf Club on Wednesday 17th November and every member of the Club wished her every success on the day.
