This month’s speaker is Lesley McCarthy from the Rotary Club of Flemington.

Her topic, Rotary Overseas Playgrounds, is one which is a fine example of how Rotary Clubs can work together with community partners and engage with communities overseas who need support.

 

Our Local Councils have a policy of replacing their community playground equipment on a regular basis and rather than send the obsolete equipment to Landfill Rotary volunteers agree to retrieve it.

Through the magnificent Rotary Donations in Kind Warehouse, we are able to harvest the playground equipment, refurbish it where needed and ship it to needy third world countries.

This does require volunteers for many tasks in the process and is surely a great opportunity for interested people who may enjoy becoming involved with Rotary projects.

We welcome all those who are interested in knowing more about Rotary and seek to become involved.

It is a great opportunity for Rotarians to introduce their friends and family members who will see Rotary in action.
