Club President Kenny Fisher was presented with a Belleek Basket which has been uniquely designed for the Club by Claire Rowe from Belleek Pottery. The basket was handmade by master craftsman John Doogan and hand-painted by Rachel Love.

Inspired by local flowers, the blue and gold colours represent the Rotary International logo in Ireland. Wild daffodils brighten the Fermanagh countryside in Spring, while the blue pansies with yellow centre are found in local gardens and hanging baskets in Summer. Hidded through the flowers are a butterfly, ladbybird and bumble bee.

The basket is the main Auction item at the Annual Rotary Ball on Saturday 16th February in the Killyhevlin. which will have a large attendance including visiting Presidents from other Clubs. The proceeds from the Ball will go towards two local charities - Cancer Focus N I, and Parkinsons - Fermanagh Branch.
