A Rotary Recreational Fellowship
Founded by Robert Sutcliffe in 1967
A Brief History of the Fellowship
In 1967 a party of 22 Rotarians from RIBI led by Robert
Sutcliffe caravanned to the RI Convention at Nice in the South
of France. They enjoyed the fellowship and friendship so much
that on their return and with RI approval, they founded ICFR -
The International Caravanning Fellowship of Rotarians.
Caravanning with Rotary has grown in popularity through the
years, far and wide. Today there are approaching 1500 members in
the United Kingdom and many more in associated fellowships in
New Zealand, Holland, France and South Africa.
Fellowship and Friendship remains the main aim and this is
achieved through an extensive programme of rallies held
throughout the British Isles and overseas tours to Continental
Europe, New Zealand, South Africa and USA/Canada.
The wide ranging programme includes Rallies at every RI and most
Inner Wheel Conventions within Europe, every RIBI and Inner
Wheel Conference and a number of District Conferences within the
United Kingdom.
There are ICFR groups in nearly every RIBI District and members
are invited to all the functions that take place within their
District.
Rotarians with Caravans or Motorhomes are invited to join, there
is an application form which can be printed out from a later
page. The current annual subscription is £10 per family and if
you join after 1st September in any year, your first
subscription will carry you through to 1st January in the year
after next. Subscriptions are payable by Bankers Standing Order.
