On the 3 March we had a really entertaining evening with Bruce
Grobbelaar and Steve Tandy. Almost 100 Rotarians and guests were
entertained by our celebrities in aid of DebRA, this year's charity. The evening added another
£1,500 for the growing fund. On the night a cheque of £22,000 was handed
over with more to come. Well done to everybody for making this year's
charity such an overwhelming success. Have a look at our
Picture Gallery where there are a few
pictures taken on the evening. More about this successful evening in our
next newsletter.
On 10 March we challenged the club of Tamworth Anker to
the Brummagem Screwdriver. After a number of pub games, the Meriden Club
narrowly won. Anyone else to challenge us?
Other items this month are: Evening with Norman Ripley
to which members and their spouses are invited. Of course anybody else
interested in Rotary is most welcome.
 Note:
No official meeting on Tuesday 7 April as most of the club will be playing
skittles. There will be club members in the "Houston" bar at the Manor
Hotel to meet and greet any visitors.
 A message from our International Committee: The Auction
Evening is on 24 April and there is a request for auction items. Please
notify Neville Riley as soon as possible.
