This will be my last President’s message, as at our breakfast next week, I will have the privilege of inducting Rob McLennan as President of the Rotary Club of Adelaide Light for the 2018-19 year. It has been my pleasure to have served the club over the past twelve months and I know you will all provide the same high level of support and willingness to serve under the leadership of Rob, as you so generously gave to me.
Thank you to those members and friends who braved the elements to cook a bbq at Bunnings Kent Town last Friday.
On Friday night a group of Adelaide Light Rotarians and partners attended the Adelaide City Rotaract Club’s Changeover where we congratulated Katey Halliday and her team on a very successful year and also witnessed the induction of 2018-19 President, Heidi Wolff, and her office bearers. We wish the club continued success and look forward to working closely with them.
Thought for the week:
Never be afraid to try something new – remember amateurs built the Ark…. professionals built the Titanic!
