Members visit Twin Club
A group of members recently travelled to Germany where they were hosted for a weekend by members of our twin club in Alzey. The twinning of clubs is an important aspect of Rotary helping to emphasize the international nature of Rotary and to develop links at both club and personal level. An interesting programme was arranged by our hosts including a visit to the historic town of Oppenheim with its magnificent cathedral and system of tunnels formed from disused cellars. This September we shall be hosting a visit from our other twin club in Enghien, Belgium.

Club Members in action
 Club members are seen collecting from the large crowd assembled in the High Street for the grand procession heralding the start of the 2010 Town Carnival. The Rotary Club organised and managed the procession in support of Harpenden Round Table who were responsible for the main event held in Rothamsted Park. All funds collected were donated to charities supported by Round Table. Another example of cooperation between the service clubs in Harpenden.
