A special welcome from President Ursula to our visiting Rotary dignitaries. And an equally appreciative mention of Antoon who advised all in the room of his birthday celebrations. He proved to be not so forthcoming at Friday Fives as it turned out.
Save a Life – Relaunch is set for 21st December with a stand operating at Countdown from 9- 4pm. Eight volunteers are sought (2 hour slots – these will be allocated on a first come first served basis so be in quick – Contact Dave Woodhouse). Dave also announced the first export shipment with 1500 capsules bound for the UK.
Christmas Meeting – 15th December. Don’t forget to bring a truly awful gift for the Secret Santa. Max value $10 with a special prize for the worst present. Last year will take some eclipsing so put your thinking caps on.
Speakers – There is apparently a shortage of speakers next year - please advise Eric if you know of anyone worthy of a slot, lest he fall back on club members to fill in (some in particular).
Duties – Eric also made a heartfelt plea for members to read and digest the contents of the Duties Section within the Bulletin – if perchance your name might appear there! Apparently Pat Taylor has had to do a lot of filing in.
Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner – Michele Beaton thanked all those involved in this event – ~$1300 raised for ShelterBox. There was apparently one no-show on the night, at which some wag suggested Pat Taylor might have been able to fill in again – not sure if he managed it.
