Dolphins bonus for Berwick Rotary fundraising voyage participants

Sixty members, family and friends and a very patient dog recently took to the water on Berwick Boat Trips’ new boat the ‘Border Belle’ – and there was a buffet as they cruised upriver to Paxton first, before returning to Berwick.

Then, as an unexpected bonus, the cruise went out to sea for outstanding views of a pod of dolphins that thrilled everyone on board.

A Berwick Rotary spokesman said: “Many thanks are due to skipper David and his crew, not just for making it so enjoyable an evening but for his generous sponsorship of the trip, which raised over £1,000 in three hours.

“Three days later, club members were in action against Eyemouth Rotary at the ten pin bowling rink for a purely social evening and the club’s next big project is the Christmas market on Sunday, December 11.”
