It's a celebration!
Thursday 12 October marks the Anniversary of the Charter of the Rotary Club of Caloundra when Ben Bennett was our Charter President.
The Club honoured Ben Bennett as part of it 50th anniversary celebrations in conjunction with the 100th Anniversary of the commencement of Rotary International on 23 February 2005. Where better to do so than at the park named after him? Ben had a strong interest in flora & fauna and lobbied hard for the establishment of Ben Bennett Park.
The club’s project – in conjunction with Caloundra City Council – provided a BBQ picnic shelter, paving, and a sign which pays tribute to Ben Bennett at the entrance to the park on Queen Street, Caloundra.
So to mark our 63rd Anniversary, our breakfast meeting on Tuesday 17 October will be a BBQ at Ben Bennett Park from 6.30am.
aLandscape Architect, Tim Hindley, Managing Director of Anembo Consultants will be the Guest Speaker, giving some more background on Ben Bennett Park.
