In this week’s edition of the Spoke ‘n’ Words we provide you with a brief round up from the Club’s AGM, bring you the latest news from the Caulfields on their Great European Vacation, we also share three things that Rotary is about, and provide a general overview on what’s happening around the traps… 
 

NUMBER 1: We Connect People - Rotary unites more than a million people
 

NUMBER 2: We Transform Communities - We take action locally and globally
 

NUMBER 3: We Solve Problems - No challenge is too big for us

 

The Rotary Club of Berwick has since its foundation in May 1961 connected people, transformed communities and solved problems… That is how we have been able to make a difference and change lives.  This is our story and you can be part of it too…

It’s hard to believe that it has been four weeks already since we reported on the Caulfields’

trials, tribulations and triumphs on the epic Camino Trail through Spain.

 

After a stop in Porto in Portugal PP Mark and Isobel Caulfield have this week landed in Tuscany, Italy. A place Lonely Planet describes as a land of “lyrical landscapes, world-class art and a superb cucina contadina (farmer's kitchen)”, a “gourmet destination whose residents spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about, discussing and consuming food and wine.” Located in central Italy Tuscany is said to be “postcard material”.

 

Our Club and Rotary in general is thankful for your service.  We all hope you enjoyed your very special day.

 

 

At the back of the Rotary Club Handbook there is a heading Acronyms.  If you don’t have one of these handbooks or are new to reading about Rotary, these acronyms can perhaps cause confusion.
