We have missed out on the screening of the movie STORM BOY on Thursday 7th February supporting Wildlife Welfare., as all tickets have already been sold. I will look into organising another day for the screening as a social outing. Date to be confirmed. Reminder to everyone of the Australia Day BBQ with details to follow from Ron. Reminder of District Conference in Broken Hill 5th-7th April. Accommodation still available . Bristol Smith Reserve Our trees and shrubs require watering as the council does not water them. I have a hose I take down and attach to the one beside the “Ezidump” If anyone interested in helping with this please let me know. If anyone knows someone who may wish to be a member or Friend of Rotary, please let Noeline or Karen know. We are always keen to hear ideas for fund raising or social activities from members who may then wish to take them up and “ run with them” with club members assisting.
