Wednesday lunchtime saw us back across the water again to visit President Alan and the members of St. Andrews RC. This had a certain element of an old boys re-union with the President being a former member of my own Club. This is another Club with a comprehensive and ambitious programme for the year ahead, including working with several other NE Fife Clubs to re-vitalise the local Rotaract Club. The one really big event of their year is the organisation of the International Golf Event, which attracts 300 golfers from 20 countries worldwide, and will be celebrating its 56th year. The lure of playing at St. Andres is always a strong one and I hope that my duties will allow me to participate. The Club has always had a strong involvement with Ambassadorial Scholars and international students, the current year being no exception with the Club acting in loco parentis for 2 visiting Rwandan students among others.Never a Club to rest on its laurels, they have also targeted a substantial increse in their member numbers to take the total to 70 or higher
