It is always an enormous pleasure to welcome visitors to our District and this was certainly the case with the incoming group of Canadian Rotarians from District 5370, Alberta. I had the pleasure of meeting them and joining them for lunch as they transferred from the St. Andrews Rotarians to those in Montrose. They had interesting tales to tell not least big John who learned late of his inclusion in the team and had to trek out of the Canadian wilderness to join his Rotarian colleagues.The five couples have a superb tour planned for them which will take them to many corners of the District and let them see many aspects of Scottish life and hopefully the best of Scottish scenery. This is just one of a number of friendship exchanges superbly organised in recent years by Mike Barron, to whom enormous thanks are due.
