(L-R) Rotary President of Guildford, Michael Ramcharan, Mayor Sallie Barker and Rotary President of Frieburg Gerhard Schneider
Following the very successful Gosdenberry event our Rotarians returned for their monthly stint of gardening, repairing the old cider house, hedge trimming and welcoming the latest animals, goats, to the children’s small farm holding; joining the pigs, guinea pigs, chickens and bees
On the 26th August we held our first event at Gosden House School in their amazing walled garden.
Many thanks to our Guildford Mayor Sallie Barker for opening the event and the groups Uke Rythmics and Men in Sheds for amazing performances
The weather was warm and sunny which helped it becoming a successful event making over £1,000 for charity distribution. Definitely an event to look out for next year following so many positive comments saying how much people enjoyed it.
On the 22nd of June Peter & Pat O’keefe hosted an amazing BBQ at which our 2023-24 President ,Andrew Day handed over the Presidency for 2024-25 to our new President Michael Ramcharan
