Dear President Pauline and members of the Rotary Club of Broadbeach,

 

Thankyou for your email and letter.

 

It is with great pleasure that I  accept your offer to continue my honorary membership with the Rotary Club of Broadbeach.

 

I have just set off on my travels for the next six months visiting the United Kingdom, Samoa, Fiji, New Zealand and then volunteering somewhere in South East Asia.  I would be very proud to represent the Rotary Club of Broadbeach on my travels.

 

With kindest regards

Kirstin Yelland 

 

 

Dear Pauline,

 

Thank you for your letter of 24 July on behalf of the Rotary Club of Broadbeach advising that I have been granted Honorary Membership for the 2018-2019 Rotary year.

 

I have much pleasure in accepting and look forward to being able to attend more often this year.

 

I deeply appreciate the privilege that has been extended to me and value the great work being carried out by theClub especially the support for the Malaria project at Griffith University which I have been involved in.

 

My personal best wishes for your term of office and I look forward to catching up soon.

 

Yours in Rotary

The Hon Robert Borbidge AO
