President Hugh's Message.
 
It was a change over with a difference on 29 June 2021, it was “Just Magic.”   Elgregoe was “Just Magic” personified. Thank you to all members for your support. We had a large number attending and that contributed to making it a great evening.

Host Duties.
 
When doing Host Duties (i.e. Duty Roster), please remember that you set tables, raffles etc up for the night.
Then at the end of the meeting you need to pack up again and return table numbers etc. into the box and put away.
The large sign outside door must also be packed away (this part isn't always been done). 
It then falls to those leaving last.

RAFFLE PRIZES
 
For this Rotary year, President Jess would like members to take turns at providing the raffle prize (no alcohol please), either by buying a prize to the value of $10 to $15 (keep the receipt and ask Treasurer Jenny for reimbursement using the claims form click here...) or maybe you have a suitable prize you'd like to donate.
 
To make it simple to keep track of whose turn it is, the person on Host Duty 2 will be asked to provide the raffle prize for the week.
 
When it's your turn to provide the prize:
  • Please put the prize on the Host table no later than 5:30 pm.
  • Make sure there's a raffle sheet (from the host bin) and a pen on the table.
  • If you are unable to attend Rotary, and you are unable to find someone to swap, please contact Robyn Baldwin so she can arrange cover for the night.

Information Required.
 
Remember this is "your" bulletin and so please email information to me on what your committee is doing (or planning) so everyone can be aware of it.

Editors Humour.
 
A few of us were discussing the perils of drinking and driving when a five-year-old girl threw in her two cents.
“I can see why it would be dangerous to drink and drive,” she said. “The straw could go up your nose.”
____________
 
Bouncer: “Sorry, I need to see an ID.”
Girl: “I told you I’m 30. Why would anyone lie about that?”
____________
 
At our weekly Bible study, the leader asked an elderly gentleman, Walt, to open the meeting with prayer.
Walt did so in a soft voice.
Another man, straining to hear, shouted, “I can’t hear you!”
Walt replied, “I wasn’t talking to you.”
