Update on what's doing at the ____________________________________________________________ Having been isolated at home for just a bit too long now, life has been settling down into a phase of "not quite sure what we'll do on the other side of these Covid-19 restrictions!" Not even sure about getting revved up about the football starting up again etc It must be so hard for businesses to crank themselves up again while certain restrictions are still maintained and make it really difficult for the right employee / customer combinations, to make a sustainable workplace. Now that we have Recovery Step 2 being implemented Monday 1st June that should make us a little happier. Meanwhile our Club have been successfully using meetings via our own Zoom Platform to manage business. Please refer below for the calendar of meetings we have scheduled to end of this Rotary Year They are also listed as 'events' on our website calendar, on the LHS of the front page. So far, we have had conducted board meetings and combined committee meetings. Some people have even attended District organised zoom meetings which have been interesting and fun. There seem to be many more opportunities available now, to participate in numerous District forums for Rotary, and all Rotarians are receiving details several times a week. So if you feel inclined, please take advantage and enjoy them. REMINDERS This week we have Committee meetings at 7.30 pm on both Tuesday (2nd) and Thursday (5th) evenings. We encourage you all to participate in them, relax and don't feel self-conscious about it. PLEASE NOTE: I am happy to give some operational pointers to anyone who wants it any time. Maybe at a prearranged time on the day prior to your meeting, to make you feel more confident. Please phone me on 0427 618 997 to make some arrangement. Each list of committee members will continue to receive an invitation via email a few days before. This includes the login link with embedded password for you to join the zoom meeting. *** ZOOM CLUB MEETING 9th JUNE AND JONAS'S PRESENTATION *** We may try a Zoom club meeting on Tuesday 9th June. It is proposed to have Jonas Hjuler, as our guest speaker to give his final presentation on zoom, "what his life has been like in Port Lincoln" for the last 11 months. At the moment it is unclear as to circumstance of Ravendale or other suitable venue being available, so zooming it is our plan for now! Jonas is due to fly home to Denmark from Melbourne on Sat 4th July at 2.15 pm He's off to KI for the long weekend coming up, with his current host family the Schells. We will hopefully have more detailed info on his departure from Port Lincoln before the 16th June SUGGESTION: Log on to the District 9500 website via our own website and look for "ZOOM Guides and Support."on the LHS of their front page. |
