President Gareth Rowland of the Rotary Club of Alford and Mablethorpe safely arrived in Rada Tilly, Patagonia as one of the two British Representatives in the World Yachting Championships, his recently broken leg stood up to the jpourney and he has been cleared to race; Gareth has already met with the Presidents of the three local Rotary Clubs

The Opening Ceremony was a great success and the Lincolnshire and Rotary flags flew proudly side by side at the ceremony as a symbol, of international friendship.

Gareth will, by now, be racing and we await news of his success.
