2017-18 President's report

ROTARY CLUB OF CROWS NEST

2017-18 ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS

Club’s core focus for 17/18

I believe it is the responsibility of each incoming president to decide for themselves whether they are happy with the 5 core areas of work we have set up this year or whether they wish to alter it but for FY17/18 we have focused our service to 5 main categories: Community service, Children’s illness, Youth, International projects and Grants, and Domestic violence/Women’s care.
