Thats deep!!
Thanks Pres Edda for the opening comments
- Steve and Ant will be away next Monday at thew Sports For All information night. If you remember we had the pleasure of seeing and listening to a very interesting presentation on the worthwhile work this organisation does for disadvantaged children by getting them into sports. Looking forward to the feedback after this meeting
- The Rotary Op shop in Kew is looking for volunteers to help out on a couple of days a week. The point of contact is Jill Forsyth and if you want her details speak to the Pres
- D9800 is sponsoring 5 Rotarians under the age of 40 to attend Ricon. - do we know anyone who deserves this support?
Matters in the Interest of Rotary
- John B advised that there was confusion regarding the Pizza night sheet filled in last week so he asked everyone present to redo it
- Ted confirmed the ESRAG event which will happen around RICON - details below on the bulletin
- Bob gave us a great pay it forward message on this recent trip to the supermarket - what goes around comes around Bob so well played
- Bob also advised that the next round of Playground removals (or partial in some cases) in Boroondara is to occur in March. The responsibility lies with ourselves and RC Hatwthorn and Bob will be looking for up to 10 volunteers, details to follow
- David Z reminded everyone of the lunch (which was yesterday March 1st) the details were incorrect in the weekly menu card - it was Box Hill RSL not Golf Club. Hope you read the last bulletin and went to the right place!! :)
- Ant gave feedback from his month of contact on the welfare committee. Turns out Rob S is recovering slowly. In face I spoke to him today and he has said (fingers crossed) only another 4 weeks in a boot! Ross is not that good so thoughts be with him.
