First Club Visit by District Governor Bill-2 July


My first Club visit to Glenrothes RC was tremendous. A final farewell to outgoing President Lars Christiansen was conducted in true Scandinavian fashion, with helmeted and horned Viking warriors, and flaxen tressed maidens. Part of the eulogy was in Danish, or pseudo Danish, with every other trapping, apart from the traditional burning of the Viking chief in his longship. Some even thought that this might be appropriate! Lars has done a tremendous job and leaves the Club in excellent heart. The coming year's targets are no less ambitious under President Ian, with the raising of funds for PolioPlus and other worthy causes, balanced equally by a first class programme of fun and fellowship. The welcome and hospitality were first class. This is a Club which people will wish to visit and where newcomers will be made very welcome.
