Club meets GSE Team from the Netherlands

On April 26, the Rotary Club of Twinsburg joined 6 other clubs at the regular meeting of the Rotary Club of Nordonia Hills.  The Nordonia Hills club was hosting the GSE Team from the Netherlands.  The team consisted of 4 young business professionals from the Netherlands and 1 Rotarian leader.  After a brief introduction by Rotarian Ellen Sijm, we heard presentations from Andre Schierlinck, a Corporate Finance Consultant, Florian Jebbink, a Veterinarian, Terence Douma, Senior Procurement Consultant for the City of Amsteradam and Mark Bonne, a Real Estate Agent.  Each member introduced themselves and their families, talked about interests and hobbies, and showed how the US and the Netherlands were similar and different as well as some of the Dutch influences on the US.

Not only was this a GSE Visit, but also a cluster event.  All of the clubs in our cluster were represented at this meeting.  Thank you to all the members of our cluster who participated.  Be on the lookout for more cluster events in the future.  It's a great way to meet old and new Rotary friends and build a network for future service projects.

Many thanks to Bob Prevette and the Nordonia Hills clubs for all the work to organize and host this meeting.
