On a barmy summer evening in Twickenham, Riverside Communicators warmly welcomed Area Governor Chucks Onwere to conduct the official handover from Area Governor to Area Director with Jenny Betts as the proud recipient. As the club ushered in a new President and committee, the club also ushered in Jenny to represent them as the new Area 29 Director and a worthy successor to Chucks.
On one of the hottest days of the year it was fitting that the handover was conducted on the terrace with a backdrop of a sea of green, beautiful scenery of blossomed trees, penetrated by the piercing sunlight that shed light on a new beginning in the clubs history.
Chucks gave a glowing appraisal of Riverside Communicators, its outgoing President Heidi Ashley-Hacker and congratulated Andrew Klimaytys DTM on his election as President for 2015/16.
Chucks went on to say how the club had contributed richly to helping him achieve President's Distinguished Area and was grateful for the members input. He intimated that Jenny had all the qualities and inter-personal skills to excel in her role and urged the club to support her in all her endeavours.
Area 29 comprises: London Athenians, Riverside Communicators, Trojans Speakers, West London Speakers and The Toastrack.
