Anne's Message

It was a delight to welcome so many visitors to our meeting. It was good to welcome guests of Rotarians Leanne Dart and, Joe Kenny. Visiting Rotarians included   Past President Michael Boyd and his brand-new wife Sharon, who is a past secretary of our Club. Michael and Sharon are celebrating their honeymoon.  We also welcomed Tony Carson and PP Diane Carson from Warragul. 

Welcome back to Tony Austin after his running repairs. We are all glad he is looking so well Ann and Andrew Body were club guests, and we look forward to them joining our club soon.

We received apologies from Brian Trenery, John Beks, Svetlana Lineham, Ian Cairns, and Kelly Curran. 

Last Sunday Brooke, George and I attended the Warrnambool and Moyne Youth Awards and presented $200 prizes to the winners in each category. 

Kings College the local winner of the Science and Engineering Challenge is now in the national finals in Bendigo in mid-October. We will watch their progress with interest 

Polio Plus movie night was on last evening. Thank you to the members who have bought tickets and made donations. It will be an opportunity to support a good cause and enjoy some Rotary fellowship.

Saturday morning four members will work as marshals for the half marathon run by the Warrnambool Athletics Club. The weather does not look good but at least we do not have to run. 

Our speaker for next week has had to reschedule so we will have to wait for a surprise.

Have a good week

Membership Moment
I have a question for you.

At our weekly Rotary meeting, do you sit at the same table, with the same people at the same venue – or even at other venues?
The beginnings of our organisation were based on four businessmen “ROTATING” among each friend’s office with the aim of improving their friendship and knowledge of each business. Should be continue that method of getting to know each other better?

Badge Duty 
As mentioned on Tuesday night, now we have our new Dinner Badges, and the Badge board has been adapted to hold them, we will re-commence the role of Fellowship duty each week, whereby two members will greet members and guests and hand out the name badges.  Judy will be keeping a grip on the Badge board until the storage area is sorted out - currently a huge mess - not a safe repository for over $700 worth of badges.  She will be up at the Footy club by 5.45pm each Tuesday night to hand over the board to the members on duty

The roster for the rest of September and October is as follows:

20th September - Glenn Brotchie and Sharon Kenny

27th September - George McLeod and Sharon Kenny

4th October - Ann Donaldson and Sharon Kenny

11th October - Tony Austin and Sharon Kenny

18th October - Progressive dinner

25th October - Janet Blackley and Kelly Curran      

If for any reason you are rostered and can't be there, would you please let Judy know ASAP, and she will arrange for someone else to fill in, or you can arrange your own replacement and let Judy know. (0429 672 446)

As announced on Tuseday night, King's College (our regional winner of the Science and Engineering Challenge), have qualified for the National Final. The final is being held in Bendigo on October 21st. While there, schools will have a formal dinner and a change to tour a local STEM related industry.
 
To help them on their journey, the challenge themselves has offered $500. Deakin University have also contributed $500, and following a board decision, our club will offer $500. With sponsorship for their accommodation organised with a local connecting school, King's College have accepted the invitation to compete at the national challenge.
 
Congratulations to King's College.
On this day in history
The sitcom Frasier—a spin-off of Cheers, starring Kelsey Grammer—debuted on NBC and became one of the most popular American television shows of the late 20th century.
