President Bill Bramwell Ends with A Bang!
President Bill Bramwell and his wife Marilyn celebrated the end of Bill's presidential year by joining the Rotary Foundation's Bequest Society. Bill and Marilyn recently pledged to amend their will to include a bequest of at least US$10,000 to the Rotary Foundation. District Governor Dean Rohrs and our own PDG Leo Nimsick were on hand to present Bill and Marilyn with pins and the Crystal on behalf of the Rotary Foundation.
Lynn Spence was installed as our newest Rotarian by DG Dean Rohrs. Lynn Cameron was recognized by the Club as a Paul Harris Fellow for her dedicated service this past year.
In his farewell speech, President Bill recalled many of the highlights in the 2006-2007 Rotary year:
- New Zealand Mt. Maunganui Exchange Visit
- Fellowship at Walt and Claudette Hayward's Home
- Delta Farmland Day
- Rotary Calendar Lottery

- Chinese New Year Party by Jon Yee
- Taiwan D 3500 Group Study Exhchage Visit

It was a year where the Rotary Club of Ladner was awarded with a Rotary International Presidential Citation. We were also recognized by District 5040 as the 3rd highest per capital contributor to the Rotary Foundation.
