Well done Dee’s! As mentioned on Monday night at our meeting, it was a great effort and win by the Melbourne Football Club last Saturday over in Perth. Congratulations to all our ‘Dee’s’ Supporters!
What a presentation we were treated to on Monday night – Trevor Pickles is one very talented man!
Showing us the art of Calligraphy, and some of the magnificent pieces Trevor has done.
Not only playing – but making (manufacturing) guitars and showing us how ‘exact’ everything needs to be for the instrument to ‘play’ in tune.
Then his involvement in Martial Arts – showing us some basic self defence moves, and proudly displaying his black belt.
Trevor is very passionate in all he does – a real perfectionist!
Thank you again Trevor for an amazing presentation.
I did note 27 people had logged onto the meeting, including Daryl Lee visiting Rotarian for Rotary Club of Essendon North – then there were the partners listening in too – would have taken our audience to around 33.
Rhonda promoted ‘Clean up you Patch’ and encouraged us all to clean up around our house, street, and greater area. The garbage you collect, you can photograph it and send the photographs to Rhonda. This will be added to the websites and be included in our clubs’ activities this Rotary year.
For further information on this program – please call Rhonda.
Bruce Turner announced Pets on Parade 2021. The committee has had the first meeting for this year, with a launch date of November 1st.
October will be a busy month.
Lift the Lid has commenced!
As many of us are aware – Lift the Lid is an annual Australian Rotary Health program to raise funds for Mental Health Awareness and research.
With a huge thank you to Lesley – the TryBookings page is up and running – and donations to this cause are already coming in!
Don’t forget to wear a hat of some shape form or description for our meeting on Monday.
I look forward to seeing the many varied types of headwear!
Incase you missed it – here is the TryBookings donation site for our club –
During the month of October, further to Lesley’s email to us all ….. we have been challenged to register ourselves and walk ‘a few K’s’ over the month.
Following Lift the Lid, there will be more on End Polio and presentations along with updates.
Here is the site to go to for you to register, and for donations to End Polio – as was all included in the email from Lesley.
Pass these donation sites around to you family and friends – all funds raised go to the cause!
Our BBQ season looks like commencing very soon.
We have been contacted by Bunnings and the Cowrie Market.
Bunnings have recommenced Community BBQ’s.
Mal will be requesting volunteers for the BBQ’s as we receive confirmation of dates.
So many of us are over being stuck at home – why not call up a member or two and catch up for a coffee? – good excuse to get out!
See you online in your finest headwear Monday evening!
