Thanks for Life

“Rotary has been involved in this fight for 25 years and the world is so close to being free from polio for good thanks to the joint hard work of organisations and governments. How fantastic for a town, individual, business or organisation to join the fight and be able to say, ‘I helped to wipe out a disease for only the second time in history, after smallpox. I stopped children from dying - I help change the world’.”

Interact

The Rotary Club of Renfrew have an active Interact Club made up of 14 to 17 olds from the schools in Renfrew, visit their facebook page...

Rotarians volunteer their efforts to improve the quality of life in their own communities and beyond. We are non political, non religious and open to all cultures, races and creeds. The club membership represents a cross section of local business and professional people.


The winning team from Arkleston Primary School Weekly meetings at the Glynhill Hotel, on Tuesdays 6.00pm to 7.30pm
The Rotary Club of Renfrew held its annual Primary 7 Quiz competition
at Kirklandneuk Primary school. All 4 local primaries were represented to include Kirklandneuk, Newmains, Arkleston and St. James. In addition to the team members there were around 120 teachers, family members and supporters in attendance. After a very close fought competition, which
went to a series of tie breakers, Arkleston Primary came out as winners, just pipping Newmains to the first spot. Each pupil taking part received a book voucher and a certificate and of course the winners received additional trophies. The winners, Arkleston, will now go on to represent Renfrew in the Rotary District Final in Glasgow in May.

Banbridge welcomes Renfrew
Frank Arnold (Banbridge) and Bob Meikle (Renfrew)
 
Friendships were made and 'auld acquaintance' renewed when 10 Renfrew members travelled to Banbridge to help the club celebrate it's 30th year. The Friday night charter dinner was excellent and we were entertained by folk singing, musicians and irish dancers. All the members from Renfrew were overwhelmed by the warmth of friendship and hospitality shown to us, and we wish Banbridge continued success and look forward to some of them joining us to celebrate our 60th.
