WROXHAM BURE VALLEY ROTARY CLUB Rotary in the United kingdom recently held its annual conference in Torquay where the topic was one that is key to a number of charitable organizations at the moment: How to best organise and modernise to remain relevant and attract new members in the future. Attended by our own president and vice president many new ideas were discussed, and over the next few months we will start to see some of these being put into practice as these are translated down to club level. With our basic tenant of raising money for worthy causes at home and overseas unchanged, the future is looking exciting. As previously reported, our schools Technology Tournament took place at Broadland High School on the 16th
March and we had teams from 5 local schools taking part. Norman Lamb
came to say hello to all the students, and it was another great day for everyone involved. The team from Cromer Academy won the basic level competition, while teams from Stalham High School won both the Intermediate and Advanced level competitions. May is a particularly busy month for us and includes our activity days for pupils from Mile Cross school in Norwich when we take them sailing on Wroxham broad, on a farm visit and organise activities at Barton Turf. On 5th
we have a new look Gazebo and will also be running a bottle stall there. We are again running our popular jazz boat event on Sunday May 20th
May we will be attending the Horning Boat Show, , for which tickets are now available at £16
per head (contact 01603 782735 or 01603 782920). The trip last 3 hours from 5.30pm and nothing can beat a gentle trip down the river on a summer’s evening to the sound of a jazz band accompanied by a lively and sociable group of people! Last but not least on 3rd
