Castle Hill Players
Pavilion Theatre, Castle Hill Showground, 10 Doran Drive, Castle Hill. Wednesday 21st September 2022: 7:30pm for 8:00pm start $30 per person. Cash payments will be collected on the night. The Appleton Ladies’ Potato Race By Melanie Tait Directed by Bernard Teuben Appleton – a quintessential Australian country town where men are real men, women are real women … and vegetables are not used in cake. But things are changing. City slickers, tree changers and refugees are moving in. Appleton might just have to face the new century but simmering tensions are about to boil over. Prodigal daughter Penny has returned from the big smoke. Appleton’s annual Potato Race has never been something she cared about, until she discovers that the men’s prize is five times more than the women’s. Now she does care! The townsfolk are about to get a lesson in gender parity … and Penny is going to get a lesson in history. A sparkling comedy about change and how we see our future. “… a shrewd, big hearted love letter to the women of country New South Wales … gently critical and deeply loving.” – Time Out Excellent news! We will be serving cheese and wine in the foyer before the play, as approved by the Board of the Pavilion Theatre. The doors will be open from 7:30pm, with the play starting at 8:00pm. As those who have attended previously will know, parking is extremely easy. For those who are uncertain about directions, the theatre is in the Castle Hill Showground precinct, off Showground Road at Castle Hill. Can you please let us know how many of you and your friends are coming by Thursday 15th September 2022? We look forward to seeing you there! **The Pavilion Theatre is a registered COVID Safe venue with the NSW Government. We have enhanced health and hygiene measures in place to keep our visitors to the theatre safe. We will be operating in line with the NSW Public Health orders in place at the time of reopening. These include wearing a facemask in the theatre. Fay Kitto - Rotary Club of North Rocks We do not stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing. |

What it takes to be a Rotarian
There are members of the community who may have some misunderstandings about what it takes to be a Rotarian.
We are always looking for new members and, in fact, it is new people joining that keeps us alive as a Service club. From time to time I hear people say things that make me think they don't consider joining or even visiting Rotary for all the wrong reasons.
This article is about the things you don't need to join Rotary, and the things you do, just in case you are not sure. The other thing you should know is that we are a very friendly bunch of men and women and we have a lot of fun, as well as achieving some pretty good things in the community.
