Rotary Club of Portlethen & District (Visit No 36)


Still Tuesday we have arrived on a rather misty evening at the Newton Arms in Newtonhill the home of the Rotary Club of Portlethen. Tonight was a change to the clubs normal meeting as they made the evening a partners night which was very nice indeed. After many introductions I was introduced to a fellow Fifer the clubs President Donald Robertson who is originally from Cupar in the heart of my own clubs area. The Newton Arms is deceiving to say the least the venue is cosy with great food and lovely modern decor. The evening was also enhanced by a visitation of a few Rotarian's from Brechin who were gluttons for punishment as I am visiting them on Thursday. The club members and their partners are very warm and welcoming, Rita and I were made to feel really at home. They are a small club but extremely commited and once again have a great array of projects on the go. I am sure they will have a bumper 2008-9.
