The Rotary Club of Port Fairy held its annual Changeover Dinner for 2024 where, traditionally, the Club Presidency changes hands. However, moving into Rotary year 2024-25, the club will be led by the same joint-presidents that were elected for 23-24.
In this regard, apart for a few minor changes to other Board members, joint Presidents - Jed Macartney and Andrew Long remain at the helm - meaning there was little change going into the new Rotary year. Nevertheless, it was an opportunity for Club members to gather in what was a fairly low key event.
A highlight of the evening however was the awarding of a Paul Harris Fellowship to long-serving Board member, Michael Crowe. Michael has served as an office bearer for the Club for around eight years taking on the role of Community Services coordinator as well as a stint as Club President in 2015/16.
The incoming Board members are - Jed Macartney, Andrew Long, Tony Murray, Jeff McLean, Graeme Cox, Michael Crowe and Harry Bracegirdle.
The night was MC'd by Rotarian John Ellard who kept us all entertained with anectdotes and a trivia quiz questions.
