Due to the current restrictions relating to the Coronavirus pandemic, the AAA have cancelled the forthcoming lectures which were due to be held on 3rd November and 1st December 2020.

Almancil International Rotary Club President Uschi Kuhn was determined to honour two members with a Fellowship award.  The award named after the founder of Rotary, Paul Harris, is given to members who have performed outstanding service to the club and thereby to the causes we support. 

Due to the ongoing problems with the Coronavirus, the Algarve Senior Bikers are, for the present time, limiting group sizes to comply with the restrictions currently in place to help prevent the spread of Covid-19.

Being a group of eternal optimists we at the Saint Andrew’s Society of the Algarve had hoped that the improvements in the Covid situation would continue sufficiently enough for us to go ahead with our Saint Andrew’s Ball on 28th November and our Burns Supper on 23rd January 2021.  Sadly, we have had to bow to the reality that this has not happened and have now reluctantly decided that we have no alternative but to cancel both events.

At the Rotary Club of Albufeira a very special companionship meeting took place on August 6, 2020, welcoming 4 new Fellows.

The President of the R.C.ALBUFEIRA said, "It is with great pride and pleasure that I see the Rotary family grow, as a Rotarian, as well as a human being and also as  President of the Rotary Club of Albufeira."

It now seems to be the new normal that ASB rides will have to be repeated on two days, due to the present Covid-19 situation and the regulations on group sizes.
The ride this time started from Silves before climbing up to the highest point in the Algarve for a coffee break at Foia.

On June 17 and 18 the Algarve Senior Bikers organized their first ride since the easing of the Covid-19 restrictions. Also, during the lockdown the ASB should have celebrated the tenth anniversary of the group in June, but that celebration has been put on hold for the time being.
