Handover July 4th 2005
Handover night was on Monday July 4th with new President Maurice Holden returning full of vigor (note spelling) and enthusiasm after attending the Rotary International Convention in Chicago.

President Zig delivers his valedictory address ...

... then divests himself of his chain of office ...
... to invest new President Maurice Holden with the chain of office and hands over the Club Charter for safe keeping for the Rotary Year July 2005-June 2006.
Outgoing President Zig Layton Henry presents the President’s lady, Janet, with a bouquet of flowers to celebrate the occasion. Zig looks so pleased!

President Maurice introduces his charities for the year and declares his commitment to the year’s activities.

Rotarian Phil Highley is then inaugurated as President Elect...

... and presented with a gift appropriate for a future president brought from the Rotary International Convention in Chicago.

Phil then passes on the chain of office for the Vice President to Rotarian Dave Pettifer...

... to the general acclamation from the club.
