On behalf of the Rotary Club of Crows Nest, Happy Christmas to you all !
Last Monday night, our Club held its annual ‘Giving Night’ and Christmas Party.
The following organisations received funds from our Club:
Giving Night

Throughout the year:
Rotary Foundation
Delvina Rescue

This equates to $47,000 given away to worthy organisations! This is the amount of money raised by the Club during the 2017-2018 year.
That’s what Rotary is all about, helping local community organisations, (and some overseas) who in turn help people in need, for example, homeless people, domestic violence victims trying to move on with their lives, Children in our community in need of help, etc.
Its all about giving back! Members of our Club are big supporters of Rotary. If you have a big heart, I ask why aren't you in Rotary?
Join us next year! Our first meeting in the New Year is on 14th January 2019 at the church hall, 63 Willoughby Road, Crows Nest. See you there?
Last Sunday afternoon, we had a Great Carols BBQ !
Supporting the local community of Crows Nest, each year the Club run a BBQ for the families attending the annual Carol Singing evening: and a good time was had by all, raising funds for Phoenix House! ($2.50 a sausage sandwich, plus onions and sauce! $1.50 cans of soft drink!)
And Bruce was displaying his 'Holla Hoop' skills!!
