Effort rewarded? Yes, in spades. Brian Johnson
and Grahame True excelled in the presentation of the Police Officer of
the Year Awards last Wednesday evening. Guest of honour, Police
Commissioner, Ken Moroney told of how important these evenings were to
the Police Force. There were many comments from police officers present
of how much the awards were valued and appreciated. The community
recognition of the great job our police force do was also an important
ingredient of the Police Awards. The visual recognition of sponsors was
a welcome initiative of Rod McDougal. M.C. Grahame kept the meeting
moving along. So well done Grahame and Brian.
I
recently attended a community forum with four other citizens, the Mayor
and General Manager. Topics were quite wide ranging and included
traffic management, Parramatta Road development and ‘Ort Enfield”. The
later being the main area of discussion. It would seem to be mainly in
the Auburn Municipal council area but of great concern to Strathfield
residents. If any Rotarian has a concern about the future direction of
Strathfield/Homebush I would be glad to raise the matter at the next
meeting.
Our thanks must go to Ray Wilson for organising
another successful Golf Day last Thursday. Perfect golfing weather. A
well attended event and reports of a great day had by all.
Until
next week
Enjoy Rotary
