Our first Rotary club visit on April 7th was wonderful. They are a singing club and of course we joined in. We did our presentation which was very well received, this is where we discovered the interest in pirates.

On April 9th we visited South Brunswick Island Rotary club, along with our usual presentation of pennants at this meeting we made presentations to four members of the club
- Leroy Brown who hosted us at his restaurant (Burbon Street- great food)
- Suzy King who took some really beautiful pictures of us including the main picture used in our blog (you took years off Suzy thanks)
- Dan Lynes and Denny Jordan who took great care of us from our day of arrival in Area 4. Their level of organisation and efficiency was impressive. Thank you gentlemen you truly embody rotary 'Service Above Self'
On April 10th we visited and presented at Fair Bluff. This meeting was extra special for us all because of the clubs history; although the meeting was small we were greatly appreciated and we thoroughly enjoyed the river walk we went on afterward. The work done on the river walk is a terrific rotary project.
