President's Blueprint
Wednesday 9 April 2008
What a great Conference we attended last weekend. Our Rotary Club was represented by 38 members and partners, the most in attendance from any of the Clubs in the District. For this we received a bottle of champers (a bit hard to share around 38 people). Thanks go to Conference Chair Ted Ingall for his undying efforts in chasing up our members to ensure a good representation of Strathfield Rotarians at the Conference. Well done Ted.
The winner of the District Community Service Project Award for the 07/08 year was announced during the Sunday morning segment of the Conference. Our entry was the MS Studdy Centre, Dr Euan Watson memorial garden; the project that Niall King and his committee ably project-managed to completion. You will be pleased to know that that project won the title for this year. Congratulations go to Niall, Ray Wilson, Les Hockley and all of those who were involved in this hands-on project. Well done fellow Rotarians.
Next years Conference will be held at Pokolbin in the Hunter Valley. More details will be made available re accommodation and the venue in due course..
Don’t forget fellows our Gala Night is quickly coming upon us (9th May). We need tables of Rotarians and friends for the event. Please contact Peter Manenti to book your tables for the night.
Reminder to Board Members of the Board Meeting at my home tonight.
President Brian
