President's Pen
Posted by Rob McLennan on Jun 16, 2019

Last Thursday morning six of us enjoyed a Coffee Conversation at the White Picket Coffee House in Dulwich where it was much easier to hear everyone.

 

Yesterday's barbeque at Bunning's at Mile End provided us with a net profit of $1865.00 and it was great to have four new club members there as part of the team. Thank you to everyone who participated.

 

This coming Tuesday evening is the launch of the Rotary/Rotaract Mentoring Program at the Cathedral Hotel in North Adelaide, which Rotaractor Heidi Wolff has driven.

 

Our next breakfast meeting at the Stamford is this coming Thursday morning the 20th and one of our newest members, Katey Halliday, will be presenting her Life and Times which I am looking forward to. Remember that you are each responsible for keeping and then wearing your club badge at each meeting.

 

The next Board meeting is this coming Thursday morning at 8.35am. immediately after the breakfast meeting.

The Four Way Test
Posted by Richard Jarrett on Sep 04, 2018

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?

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.

Two elderly women were in a beauty parlor getting their hair done, when in walked a young woman with a low-cut blouse that revealed a beautiful rose tattooed on one breast.
 
One woman leaned over to the other and said, "Poor thing. She doesn't know it, but in 50 years time she'll have a long-stemmed rose in a hanging basket!"
