It was great to catch up with everyone last Thursday at our first meeting for 2019, and as well as our guest speaker, to have Margie Harding and Margie Steffins who Phil has lined up as a guest speaker in the near future.
Last Sunday, nineteen Rotaractors and John W. joined me at the Riverside Rowing Club for a "come and try" session which was hugely successful and several are seriously thinking about completing the six-week course.
This week is a coffee conversation at the Stables at 9.30am.
Our next Board Meeting is tomorrow evening at 6pm. at the Royal Coach in the Board Room.
Rotaract meet next Monday for their first one for 2019
Next Tuesday we are operating the Barbeque at Bunnings at Mile End and I understand that Di has filled the three shifts.
Also, next Tuesday evening the small Rotary/Rotaract subcommittee are meeting at the Arab Steed on Hutt St. to further discuss the progression path to Rotary.
Thursday 24th. Jan., we meet for breakfast at the Royal Coach and Liz Tilley will be our guest speaker, presenting her “Life and Times".
For the benefit of members, we will aim to give the Duty Roster a few weeks ahead - see below.
