Our Sportsman's Luncheon is this coming Friday, 20th June 2025.
Here is an opportunity to mix with the greats of Rugby League and Rugby Union, whilst being entertained by the master comedian, Danny McMaster, whilst enjoying a plethora of various finger foods and unlimited drinks (wine, beer or softdrinks) for the entire 3-hour event.
We will have a Minibus there to take people who may have gone above the 0.05 Limit (Max 15 Km). As we are not a licensed Taxi or equivalent service, we'll accept your generous donation rather than a fixed price.

Our annual Changeover Luncheon is one of our major events of the year, where the previous Rotary year's President, Andy Bell, will hand over the President's collar to incoming President Paul Seymour and awards are handed out. Graeme Isaacson organised the venue for this year's event: it be held at the TRYP by Windham Hotel in Southport. He has wrangled a special deal, which includes a two-course (Main Course and Dessert) and welcome drinks on arrival. And, in a time when prices seem to go through the roof, the price is lower than last year's event!

- John Groves and Matt Hayward both were bestowed a Paul Harris Fellowship (the second one for Matt), in recognition of the enormous amount both have done with the Pentecost Island X-Ray Unit project.

Hard work it might have been, but the team was unanimous in declaring the exercise as a “once in a lifetime experience”. Twelve days of basic accommodation in a guest house, no electrical power (except in the Medical Centre), locally cooked
