Meeting and fellowship
Inner Wheel Club of Butterworth
9 January 2022
The Inner Wheel Club of Butterworth had its first physical club meeting on 9th January, after a very long spell and it was followed by fellowship to celebrate New Year 2022 and World Inner Wheel Day for the first time at Kirtiga Meals Restaurant, Bukit Mertajam. Advantage and opportunity were taken of the relaxed Movement Control Order although existing SOPs were adhered to.
Twelve members attended the meeting which was followed by a sumptuous lunch of banana-leaf delights. Next on the agenda was a gift exchange session which was spiced up with fun ‘penalties’ for everyone before they could claim their gifts. Members had a great time with much rip-roaring fun with President Santhi Sundara and team having everyone in stiches. There was also a Quiz on International Wheel by Past President Lucy Barrock in conjunction with World Inner Wheel Day and members performed splendidly.
The organising committee comprising Aasha, Jayalatha and Gurmit not only put together all the activities but brought in a lovely and delicious cake to celebrate the gathering. IWC Butterworth typically conducts multiple celebrations at once and everyone sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to member Indira Nair who could not attend but enjoyed the singing via a WhatsApp video message.
Club members went home with flowers and gifts after a wonderful time. It was a beautiful and memorable event for the club which will be celebrating its 3rd Anniversary soon. Members are looking forward to more fellowships and some have come forward with ideas for future fun get-togethers.
