History |
Inner Wheel first arrived in France by courtesy
of Belgium when the Inner Wheel of Mons sponsored the Inner
Wheel Club of Valenciennes which was chartered on 25 June 1950.
Today, Valenciennes
|
 is one of the 11 clubs in District 67. Throughout France, Inner Wheel comprises over 150 clubs in 9 Districts and via the "Association des Clubs Inner Wheel de France Andorre, Maroc, Algerie, Tunisie" (FAMAT), also acts as the communication centre for all Inner Wheel clubs in those African countries as well as other protectorates, colonies and prefectures in South America and the Caribbean. Histories of all those countries, their districts and clubs can also be found in this section. Districts |
