A Rotary year runs from July 1st to June 30th of each year. June therefore sees the installation of a new president and officers and the retirement of the outgoing president. For the past three years, Dryden Rotary’s annual installation has taken the form of a “Fish-fry” at the local flying club off Gordon Road.

This year the relaxed informal event was celebrated with a Canada Day theme as it occurred just prior to Canada’s birthday on July 1st. Everyone was encouraged to dress in red and white.
