Steve’s Snippets 16 October 2002
(President Elect Keith Stockall is writing the 'snippets' this week)
President Steve has been in W.A. this week and as a result I provide the following "snippets" on his behalf.
Firstly congratulations & welcome to all Pride of Workmanship recipients and also welcome to family and friends of recipients to our special evening in which we recognize individuals who have been identified as having pride in what they do.
Last Friday our club provided a BBQ in Parramatta Park on behalf of Anglicare who held a function for refugees. I attended together with Harley Tarrant, Shirley Del Prado, Niall King, Kevin Beltane and two staff from the office of Rotary International. Several hundred sausages together with lots of onions were cooked. Thankyou to those Rotarians that took time to make the BBQ happen. Anglicare and all the refugees were truly appreciative. Also a big thankyou to Niall King who had a tow bar fitted to his new, 1 day old, car just so he could tow the BBQ trailer for Shirley.
A reminder that club elections will be held on 4 December 2002 to elect the Board for the 2003/2004 year. I would encourage all club members to consider nominations for positions on the Board and other positions of office. Remember it’s your club, you get out of it what you put into it.
Last night a group of club members and friends attended Mamma Mia at the Lyric Theatre, Star City and had a most enjoyable evening. President Steve and Denise jetted in from Perth literally minutes before the start of the show.
Finally, thankyou to Keith Byrn, together with his assistants Sue Byrn, Brian Johnson and Grahame True for the planning and organisation of this evenings function.
