President George's
Wednesday 21 June 2006
So here we are. The lucky last Chit Chat, small talk or gossip according to the Oxford dictionary. I don’t suppose the last 46 have been all that profound (Oxford dictionary: Profound: - demanding much thought, of great insight or knowledge). While I may plead not guilty to profundity I do hope that my scribblings were not too boring.
Debbie Irwin, a teacher from Strathfield Girls High School, gave us some food for thought last week in her address on Literature extension and how Rotary can help. We sometimes look into the distance when a worthwhile programme is right on our doorstep. Of note too was the confidence in public speaking by the student that Debbie had asked along.
I suspect that the Census is not something that we give a lot of thought to before we start to fill in the form. Tonight our own Allan Petersen is going to explain all the whys and wherefores and dispel all the mysteries of the 2006 census.
As a bonus tonight Grahame True will bring us up to date in what is new is the electricity business.
We now look forward to a great year ahead with Harley as DG and of course Rod as President of out Club.
See you all at the Waterview Convention Centre on Sunday.

Until next week
Enjoy Rotary,
President George
