There are 4 Rotary clubs in Bermuda, of course, all
part of District 7230. Many of us have visited these clubs as part
of the annual "On-To-Bermuda" trip in our district.
Nevertheless, I was a visiting Rotarian at the
Hamilton Club's new meeting place, the "Royal Bermuda Amateur Dinghy
Club." Cost of lunch = $27pp.
My dad and I were greeted with a small turnout, but
there were several Rotarians we knew from previous District
meetings. The lunch speaker was a government employee, manager of a
"youth at risk" innovative program in Bermuda. His speech was
televised by Channel 11, the local NBC affiliate, to be broadcast in the
evening. (I'm told they record the Rotary club meeting every week
and rebroadcast it!)
Here Ted Nygreen presents the RCWP banner to
President Chris Morris:
Our "flag exchange" was different in that Hamilton
doesn't have banners. Rather, they gave me this certificate in lieu
of a banner, decorated with the coats of arms from all nine parishes
in Bermuda:
