Anne's Message 

Thank you to PP Trevor Williams for sharing with us his memories of his very interesting trip to Fiji as part of a Rotary work party organised by a very good past member Eddie Sutcliffe. Well done, Trevor.
 

It was a pleasure to induct a new member Greg Lee to our club. I am sure he will be a very good member. Good spotting by Janet Blackley and thank you to Tony Austin for the follow up and agreeing to be Greg's mentor. Do you think we can find two more new members by the end of June?
 

We had apologies from Ann Body, Janet Blackley, Ann Donaldson, Chris Stebbing, and Terry O’Neil.
Next week will be a board meeting.
Have a good Easter.

Member Announcements
Anne Adams
Anne has been contacted by Marg Wagner from 'Enhance Work Placement Experience for Everyone' in regards to billeting under 18s throughout the year to help complete their tafe courses here in Warrnambool. These students live remotely and need to complete intensive elements here at our south west tafe campus. This program has a MOU with our district and is being asked of all clubs within our area. If you are interested, please talk to Anne. Brooke can also forward on the flyer and information.

BOOK SALE RAFFLE:
items are required to create prizes for the raffle at the Book sale.  There will be several prizes as usual, and they will be compiled of whatever is donated. If you can spare something to go into one of the prizes on offer, could you please bring it along and give to Judy.  Suggestions - wine, chocolates, biscuits, food items. REMEMBER everything must be unused/new and not out-of-date. 
 
HI-VIS VESTS: 
We are missing several vests and I ask if you could please check and see if you may have one lurking in a dark corner somewhere, (at home, in the car, at work, in the shed???). If you do find one, could you please check and see if it is clean and bring it back so we have a full complement of vests once more. Many thanks.
 
LIDS FOR KIDS: 
Please continue to bring along your washed milk bottle tops. Svet and her Girl guides are working with Lauren,  who came and spoke to us. You can give the lids to Svet or Judy. Bread tags are also still being collected.
 
SMALL CHANGE JAR: 
please feel free to empty your pockets and purses of any small change which will go towards Rotary's endeavour to END POLIO NOW. Thankyou for your continued support and generosity.
