The frenzy of the last 3 weeks having subsided somewhat, there is now a chance to update my activities. At the beginning of the week, I visited the nearest Club to my home, Abertay. Not surprisingly, I know and have known many of their members for a great many years. The Club is in vibrant form and showing clearly the benefits which can arise from a change to their meeting time. They have a very happy blend of enjoying themselves and raising lots of money for good causes, with some events such as the Jazz at the Castle event and their presence at the Dundee Flower and Food Festival combining both. They attach great value to the need to publicise Rotary's activities, with their Club Magazine yet again picking up the top prize. It was a pleasure to present this to editor Adrian Stewart. As with a number of Clubs, they have an active involvement with Age Concern, something which I totally commend. We will all get there one day. The Club has ambitious membership growth plans and I wish them every success in this vital activity for all Clubs, and a very happy year under the leadership of President John.
