On June 30, 2022, President Robin Ford ended his final meeting for rotary year 2021-22 with a presentation from CNN Award Winning Anchor and International Journalist Michael Holmes.
He commenced his presentation talking about his experiences with rotary and the work we do globally including the student exchange program. He recounted a number of events he covered including the impact of climate change on the Caribbean islands by devasting hurricanes and other challenging global events from all corners of the world, like the fall of Berlin wall to the war in Iraq and more recently in Ukraine. His presentation was well received, with good membership engagement which included some several thought-provoking questions from members and the media present.
He was introduced by Past President Trevor Carmichael and vote of thanks was delivered by Secretary Ermine Darroux. The meeting started off with a powerful prayer from Rotarian Keri Mapp following by a summary of our 'Rotary Minutes' presentation by Director and Past President Carole Jn Marie.
President Robin thanked his friend Michael for accepting his invitation to speak at our meeting and extended an open invitation to him to visit Barbados in the near future.
