David Byfield reported that, at last nights board meeting, two projects were approved. 
 
We have sponsored the Riverina Summer School for Strings to the tune of $500. This is part of the Wagga Wagga cultural heritage, and has been a feature for over thirty years. David mentioned that if members were interested, a season ticket for the series of concerts was available.
 
The second project exceeded $1000, and required Ratification at a club meeting.
We propose to purchase a defibrillator at cost of $2500, to be available at our Rotary events - The Food and Wine Festival and The Gears and Beers Festival.
 
It is proposed to mount the defibrillator in a secure box on the Trailer BBQ. 
 
There was no suggestion that an old phone box be purchased to house the equipment, although a precedent has been set in Ireland.
