Last Tuesday evening the Community Service Committee had a very successful meeting at the Astor Hotel over dinner with an excellent number participating including Alex and Maria. Congratulations to them for obtaining visas and Alex commenced his new job as an IT Engineer the day before, working on South Terrace. The committee discussed holding its first coffee morning entitled Chat To Belong on Saturday 5th. June at 9.45 am at the Cafe Outside The Square, 34 Whitmore Square. This will be an opportunity for club members to chat with recently arrived people from overseas and hopefully being able to offer advice. If you would like to attend and/or invite someone please let Kirsti know as we need to be able to confirm numbers. The next Area 12 President's meeting is tomorrow, Monday night and both John W as PE and myself will be there, also attending will be the new District Governor Elect At last Thursday's Coffee Conversation we were joined by two members from the Mitcham Club, Alison Carter and Paul Jupp which swelled our numbers and hopefully they may be able to attend one of our breakfast meetings. John W. and I are attempting to plan the club's next social outing which will be a train trip (hopefully steam) from Mount Barker to Strath or Goolwa, the date is yet to be confirmed, however please pencil in Sunday 1st. August. Our next BBQ at Bunnings at Mile End is this coming Tuesday, and Di has a full team of volunteers ready to go. This Thursday morning is our next Breakfast Meeting at the Sage from 7 am and I look forward to as many members as possible being able to join us. Please remember to let me know of your attendance by this coming Tuesday evening. |
