Not only is Simon Cubitt the Club Director for Youth Service, but he also chairs the Willetton Rotary Community Fair Committee. So it seemed only right we combine the two for his report.
On Youth Service, applications are open until 31 March 2018 for budding scientists to apply to attend the National Youth Science Forum (NYSF) to be held in Canberra and Brisbane over forthcoming December/January period. The Club would like to sponsor up to three students at a cost of $4,950 (one half the total cost). If you know of a deserving candidate do please put their name forward for consideration.

The next Rotary Youth Programme of Enrichment (RYPEN) will be held in May. It cost $300 per student and the Club plans to sponsor up to ten for $250 each with the students to provide the balance. The students are often drawn from WSHS, but if you know of one who would benefit, please let Simon know.

On the Willetton Rotary Community Fair. We are now just three weeks away from Sunday 8 April, so time is of the essence. Everyone is encouraged to pitch in-especially with items for the Silent Auction (managed by Ric Davies): but also with Books (managed by Maureen Webster and Jill Cubitt); Plants (managed by David Coldwell); or Home Goods (managed by Mary Henderson) . Rob Webster has issued the second draft of roles and responsibilities. Please review it and let him know if any changes are needed. The Fair committee will meet to finalise details on Tuesday 27 March 2018. On the day, we need as many people at the Burrendah Reserve by 6am to deal with all the last minute details and the rush of stall holders.
