Latest news
Slow news week with the normal club meeting replaced by our social night - 
 
The bulletin contains details of a few upcoming events so ensure you read through- let us know if you want any more information.
 
The FORaMEAL team had a successful packing event at Strathcona yesterday 26500 meals packed! - thanks to Val for the photos
 
 
So, what's on next week?  John has shared the agenda so it's just to confirm that we will have our AGM - the good news being that all open positions have had nominations.
 
Also, we will have a presentation by 3 of the 4 La Trobe Orthoptic students who attended the recent Eye Hear mission - Lauren Vernon, Kali Evans and Shawna Sapuppo 
 
Finally, a call for one of our members to provide assistance to the club - Rob S has been running the speaker program as the Director of Club Service and this is a time-consuming job when he has other roles to fill.  We need someone to step up and be part of his team to source speakers for the club - The speaker program is very important as it attracts members and also ensures that our Monday nights are interesting.  District has a speaker coordinator who shares their list and also we can gain information from other clubs on their speakers.  There is a small amount of admin (arranging times, getting bios for the bulletin, hosting etc.)  Obviously, we are still interested in any speakers recommended by club members - feel free to send the information to Rob.
FORaMEAL last packing event of the year
Wednesday 6 December 2023
St. Leonard’s College
163 South Road Brighton East.
Set Up 11.45am packing 1pm to 3.30pm
