We celebrated 75 years of our #Alkmaar link and said thanks to the little barrel organ. And we remembered that what first joined us is, sadly, are still with us, even here in Europe. International friendship and solidarity between people, person to person, still matters.

Great to see President Simon at this important event. Our Club played a key role in the creation of this link in 1945, and we still keep our contact with the Rotary Club of #Alkmaar very much alive: we will be visiting in May.
