President's Pen
Posted by Julie Campbell on Mar 08, 2018
Following the last two weeks when we had an ensite visit to Wohlers and a City of Adelaide Rotaract /Adelaide Light Rotary joint meeting at the Havelock Hotel, I look forward to seeing everyone back at the Royal coach for breakfast this Thursday.
 
An enormous thank you to John Campbell and his team of volunteers for organising the use and operation of car parking facilities at 154 Fullarton Road for the Adelaide V8’s last Saturday and Sunday. Just over $1800 was raised with Rotarians working from 7am - 12.30pm.
 
Please remember we have a Bunnings BBQ this Sunday at Mile End - Di is organising the roster and would appreciate any more volunteers wiling to help.
 
Thought for the week:
When something goes wrong in your life, just yell ‘Plot Twist’ and move on.

The Four Way Test
Posted by Richard Jarrett on Jan 22, 2015

The Four Way Test

Of the things we think, say or do:

  1. Is it the Truth?
  2. Is it Fair to all concerned?
  3. Will it build Goodwill and better Friendships?
  4. Will it be Beneficial to all concerned?

Affirmation

United in the spirit of Service we value truth, fairness and friendship; and we welcome the opportunity that Rotary gives us to contribute our talents and resources in support of others.

 

Rotary Club of Adelaide Light Mission Statement

To be recognised as the Service Club of Choice in the Eastern Precinct of Adelaide because we are a Friendly Breakfast Club that appeals to a broad range of busy people who want to make a difference to local and international communities.
