Adopting our new Club format, every other week we will be having a Club discussion on our current activities.
Discussion last week concentrated on "Crows Nest Rotary - Our Future Existence":
- President Alon suggested we need to identify worthy organisations who serve our community in our local area, who need assistance, both monetary and physical assistance.
- Philip mentioned Marys House
- Sue suggested she approach the police for suggestions
- Catholic Care was mentioned
- a community grant application is in the process of being granted
- and the Kenya District 9212 have advised they are unable to contribute to the Club's Kenya project, therefore the future of the project needs to be determined with RI.
- Angleo gave a quick report on the progress of the 2017 Trifecta Tickets project, and advised that 8 Rotary Clubs had already signed up at this early stage, so the project is going well to schedule.
Our member Philip Smith gave a short presentation about his recent trip around Australia on the Coast Road, 'A1', on a motorcycle, 19,370 kilometres. Philip showed some interesting photos and spoke of his being the Secretary of the Rotary Fellowship's Australian Chapter,' the International Fellowship of Motorcycling Rotarians'. Membership of the Fellowship is approximately 140 Rotarians who reside all around Australia.
