Rotary Club welcomes its new President
Burnham-On-Sea
Rotary Club members welcomed their new President for the year
ahead at meeting on
Thursday evening (June 29th).
George
Moon handed over the chain of office to incoming President, Mike
Young, who is a well-known face about Burnham for his work as
Chairman of the town's Carnival Committee.
 Mike
spoke about making sure that the Rotary Club remembers its beginnings
as a body of people dedicated to service in the community and
the world at large.
During
the meeting, held at the Battleborough Grange, the retiring President
handed over one final cheque to a local charity.
Mr
Moon presented £500 to the Highbridge and Burnham branch
of St John Ambulance.
Divisional
Superintendent Keith Gough and Claire Gough, pictured above, accepted
the money on behalf of their group, which followed a successful
collection at Sanders Garden World in Brent Knoll.
