Last Thursday, our guest speaker was Margie Steffens who spoke on Community Dental Services, and who announced that she would like to join our club, and plans to attend our meeting this coming Thursday morning at the Ibis.
Two more guests attended last week’s Breakfast Meeting, Andy and Christine Van Der Merwe who arrived in Australia just three weeks ago from South Africa and they also hope to attend this week’s breakfast at the Ibis.
Sadly, I received a request from Don Tindale for immediate three months leave of absence from the club. I know that we all wish Don well with his ongoing health issue.
Richard Jarrett has very kindly agreed to take over Don's portfolio of Vocation for the remainder of this Rotary year.
On behalf of the club I also want to wish Katrina's husband, Vincent, a speedy recovery from a sudden illness that placed him in hospital.
This year’s RYPEN is on from 5 - 7th. April and applications close on 25th. March.
This year’s RYLA is from 6 - 12th. July and applications close on 31st. June.
Catherine House are holding a Quiz Night on Friday 29th. March at the Goodwood Community Centre and hopefully our club can put a table together. Please let me know if you are interested.
World Rotaract Week this year is from the 11th to 17th. March.
