It is with great pleasure that I wish to announce that we will be welcoming via a formal induction ceremony, this coming Wednesday evening our new Club Member Julia Bickers. Julia has been attending the Club Meetings for some four weeks, or so, and has taken the “leap“ by formally applying to become a Rotarian. After the submission of her application and the obligatory Notice and timeframe on Intention to Join Mornington Rotary has now passed, we can induct Julia into the fold on Wednesday evening.
With my absence, last fortnight, it was great to have our President Elect, young Pam H accompanied by Ross K ,co- Chair the Club Asembly Meeting. A very big thanks to Ross for his very professional and extremely though Community Report and the presentation of a number of very important items of business that were tabled and passed by the members present in the affirmative for action. Well done to both Ross and Pam.
Up Coming Community Event
With the ongoing priority that all Rotary Clubs are dealing with in regard to Membership we have a fantastic opportunity that has been afforded to us along with a host of fellow Community Base Non-For-Profit Charitable Organisation’s within the Mornington area to present “who we are and what we do“ to the community, towards the end of May 23. Bunnings has invited us as one of many presenters to attend their Community Networking Evening, as shown below:
We are excited to be hosting our next ‘Community Networking Event’!
An opportunity for local not for profit Community groups to come together and network in a supportive space while also recognising and discovering the wonderful work that each group does for our wider Community.
Bunnings Mornington recognises that 2022-2023 has been challenging for our community groups and would like to provide you with an opportunity to reconnect.
Please join us at this special event:
Wednesday 24th May 2023 from 5.30pm – 8.30pm
1100 Nepean Hwy, Mornington
Our Community Networking event is focussed on providing our local community groups the chance to re-establish relationships, discuss how they have managed to get through the challenges of the past year and what plans they have for the future.
I have recently communicated with our Community Chair Ross K and even though this invitation falls on a Wednesday evening we both see this opportunity as “one not to passed by “.

With things now on the move in regards to “ being out their in the Community . it is great to see that RYLA is back on and as detailed below, ready for action.
