Monday 13th May we had the pleasure of a past member of the Hayle Rotary Club who visited us for the first time since he emigrated to Australia . Rtn Derek Button was welcomed by old friends and new to the Club he joined in 1996 . Since moving to Australia some 8 years ago he joined Rotary in a small town north of Sidney and has been President of the Club . Derek gave the club a very interesting talk on his life in Australia. It was a real pleasure to see him looking so well . Sorry about the weather but we understand why you moved down under .
