Visit to RC of Ravenshead and Blidworth 12th September

After the visit of the National President of Rotary, it was back to the routine of Club Visits this evening, with a trip over to the lovely village of Linby to meet up with the members of the Rotary Club of Ravenshead and Blidworth and their president, Gwilym Griffith.   The club meets later that most with an 8pm start and so a late finish.
 
The club meet at the Horse and Groom pub, also the home of the RC of Hucknall.   
 
After a very tasty meal I talked to the club about the theme for 2012/13 and also gave them an update of the visit by the RIBI President.   I presented the Club President with an origami crane and a letter from RI President Sakuji Tanaka.    A lively discussion followed, mainly about membership issues and how the club can best deliver service to its local community.   Thanks to Rtn Alan Snape for his thought provoking questions.
