The Rotary Club of Midsomer Norton and Radstock is happily twinned with Rotary International Libourne Saint-Emilion in the beautiful Bordeaux region of South Western France.

The forty year union was recently celebrated over a long weekend where thirteen Rotarians and their partners were generously hosted by their French counterparts.

It goes without saying that the participating members thoroughly enjoyed the prestigious wines of the area, along with the fascinating history of Saint-Emilion and the glorious scenery.

Many old friendships again flourished and new friendships were built.

The Club looks forward to returning the terrific hospitality shown to them when the Rotary International Libourne Saint-Emilion Club next visits.
