• In August attended Nicosia Rotary Club and exchanged banners

• Several members attended District Conference

• 120 people attended Ladies evening at the Regency Rooms on November 6th

• Charter Night had over 160 people attending with Trevor Bethel as the speaker

• Meeting was at Bartlewood Lodge under the old management with excellent service/food.

• Our main project was Polio Plus and with an aim of £3,800 we held a Nouveau Beaujolais evening on Thursday 19th November at Bartlewood.  The staff put on a Can Can dance which was brilliant. District refused to give us a certificate for the £3, 800 we raised because they said we should have got £4, 000. In October 1987 we had a Bavarian evening at Bartlewood.
