Rotary club changes presidents

The Rotary Club of Umina Beach has held its 43rd Changeover.

The Changeover saw the club farewell its 2018-19 president Mr Paul Quinn and welcome its 2019-20 president Mr Rouel Vergara at a dinner held at Ocean Beach Surf Life Saving Club on June 19.

Mr Quinn reflected on his time as president, saying it was amazing what Umina Rotarians had achieved in the space of 12 months.

Notable highlights included the successful delivery of over $39,000 in fundraising to over 20 beneficiaries, the coordination of inbound and outbound Rotary Youth Exchange students Thyra Jorgensen and Beau Seale, the success of the 2019 Vocational Program and the club's international service to the Papuata Girls College in Samoa.

"It has been a real privilege serving as president over the last 12 months," he said.
