Welcome to Round Table 1 Nicosia Cyprus
Round Table is an international club for young men between the ages 18 to 45. The main aim of Round Table is fun and meeting people from all walks of life, however, Round Table is also well known for organizing novel fund-raising events which form an important part of its activities.
Round Table started with just one man's idea. Louis Marchesi was a member of Rotary in Norwich but had the brainwave of starting a new club for young men between the ages of 18-45. So, the first Round Table was formed in Norwich, England with the motto 'Adopt, Adapt, Improve'. Louis Marchesi felt a need existed for a club where the young business men of the town could gather on a regular basis. At their meetings they could exchange ideas, learn from the experiences of their colleagues and play a collective part in the civic life of Norwich. Within a year of inception the membership of this Round Table had grown to 85 and interest was being shown in establishing Round Tables elsewhere. From a very early stage it was agreed that Round Table would be a non-religious, non-political club and this has continued to this day.
The focal point of Round Table is its regular meetings. Normally twice a month, usually in the evening and sometimes with a meal. The regular meeting is the forum for speakers and many other forms of activity and entertainment. This can vary from a meeting with a guest speaker, talking many varied subjects to a meeting in a hot air balloon, or it may be just a meal and include discussions on forthcoming social and service projects.
In Cyprus there are 9 Round Table clubs and Round Table 1 Nicosia is the fist one formed in Cyprus. The meetings of Round Table 1 are usually held every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month. Visitors and potential members will always be made particularly welcome to the meetings, as Round Table provides an ideal opportunity to establish new friendships.
