Thought for the week
Don't focus on the effect of a dilemma, focus on its cause & how you contributed to its manifestation.
THANK YOU KING STREET MOTORS
Thanks to King Street Motors for carrying out a Warrant of Fitness inspection of the Hot Dog Caravan at no cost to the Club, and then carrying out some maintenance work, again at no cost to the Club. What great support of our efforts for the community.
Members might like to return the favour by supporting King Street Motors; you'll find them at 143 King Street.
(If you have any comments or questions, please contact the editor)
President Bev's Message.
Greetings,
It was pleasing to hear of the plans of the Club Committees for the coming 6 months or so.
I appreciate and thank you for your time and input into these committees.
The Membership and Social committee have plenty of ideas coming forth to reach out and engage with the community.
Let's all get in and show support for their ideas and grow the membership of our Club.
From Directors;
Following on from Andrea, Lionel will complete and put Induction procedures in place.
Finalising a list of Rotary clothing items that each member can choose to purchase with the help of a Club subsidy.
Suggested that Club committees give a small update to the Board, say 4-5 sentences, to keep them informed of their programme
Discussion regarding the sale of excess firewood [just for this season] to make space for the ongoing collection of wood throughout the summer.
The agencies are very pleased with this service and as a Club, we need to make certain that our reach is as wide as it could/should be.
