The Governor, the president of the club and several members visited the Mayor Mr. Ramez Jeraysi and his assistants, Abdulla Jubran, Suheil Fahoum and Dakheel Hamed in the Municipality. The mayor welcomed the Governor and the members of the club, then talked about the work the municipality was doing for the year 2000 and requested the Rotary Club to do its share for this project.
