On Wednesday 16 January, Club members were involved in the annual Berwick cemetery clean-up.
This is the 55th year that the clean-up of the cemetery by the Rotary Club of Berwick, has taken place. The first one taking place over two days in 1965, under the Presidency of Bill Henry.
PP Gus Dominguez thanked all those who had participated in the activity this year.
In response, Neil Lucas from the Berwick Cemetery Trust acknowledged the good work of the Rotary Club of Berwick members over the 55 years.
He then explained that the cemetery is on an 8 acre site, of which 4 acres have already been developed. The other 4 acre sloping 'paddock' to the West will be developed soon, thereby providing more plots and plenty of work to be done.
Therefore, he joked that the Club should double its membership, as more helpers will be needed in future clean-ups.
