PRESIDENT'S COLUMN

 
Dear Friends at Crows Nest
 
Our lunchtime meeting last Monday was a quiet affair. Quite a number of apologies due to other commitments.
 
Plans for the Crows Nest Fair in October are progressing welll in the capable hands of Lea, Louise  and Sue.  At this stage as well as showcasing our Club, Marys House and Taldumunde have been invited to display the excellent work they do in our local community.  We will be calling for volunteers in the next couple of weeks.
 
Next month will be busy as we have two BBQ’s as well as the Fair.
 
Marys House are organising a 10km work against Domestic Violence. Catherine is looking for volunteers to join her for this great initiative.
 
Our District Grant has been approved and the two Light Units for Jaundiced Babies for the RHSH Neonatal Unit have been ordered. Louise is organising a time for the official presentation. Louise is also organising a visit to the Tressillian Unit in North Sydney.
In November we are planning a restaurant evening in Cammeray with other clubs, with a speaker on adult health and fitness followed by a visit to the Keiser Gym. 
 
Bill is recovering from ankle surgery and expects to be mobile in the next couple of weeks.
 
We have been given a wheelchair, walker and numerous crutches in excellent condition. Any suggestions for a good home?
Our next meeting is a night meeting with a great speaker, Denise Ward from the Cros Nest Community Centre, so bring some friends. Details in Bulletin.
 
Yours in Rotary, 
 
Angelo
