Winter Solstice 2015

Winter Solstice 1 2015 Winter Solstice 2 2015Vicki did a great job organising catering for this symbolical event. It must be a special time for people who have lost loved ones to suicide, but shining a light during the darkest night of the year does touch a lot of our people. Preparation of food went very well with Judy,Meredith,Julie, Gordon and Vicki. Gordon was very gallant by offering to do the job with the most tears(peeling the onions) We were quickly reminded of kitchen rules – knife holding, wet cloths under cutting board etc.,  and given snakes to eat so we kept up the energy and pace. All over by 10.30 and we left Vicki to clean the kitchen. Sunday night was again a well organised event with Gordon, Leanne,Dan,Chiq,Vicki and Julie. Kept busy for about 3 hours selling our great recipes. VICKY should be pleased. Even Justin turned up for short time to help, even though though he was on call for his business.

June is Rotary Fellowships Month

Rotary Fellowships Month – June There are many extensive activities of the Rotary Fellowships. You may find that your profession, business or industry area has already established a Fellowship. If not, why not think about starting one yourself! Pastimes, hobbies and sports are made just that much more interesting if you can be involved in an international group. Look through the list of the Recreational Fellowships – is there something there for you?

March

MARCH IS LITERACY MONTH……

Combating illiteracy has been a focus of Rotary International since 1986 – and for good reason. UNESCO estimates there are 862 million illiterate adults in the world and about two-thirds of them are women. Millions more are functionally illiterate, without the reading and writing skills necessary for everyday life. The United Nations has identified illiteracy as a major obstacle to economic, political, and social development. Be a part of the solution for this world wide problem.
