ROTARACT CLUB OF ANTIGUA
The Rotaract Club of Antigua was established in May of 1986 and officially chartered on December 5 of that same year, as a part of District 7030. The club, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Antigua, was founded by Rotarians, Patrick (Paddy) Benjamin and the late Anthony Michael.
Greg Walter was the charter president and Keva Margetson vice president.
Over its almost 18 years of existence, the club has helped to develop a number of young men and women in Antigua.
