Rotary Citation for 2021-22
Dear Past President Keith
Congratulations, your Club has been successful in achieving a Rotary Citation for 2021-22.
This means the club achieved or exceeded the Goals set in MyRotary.
Thanks also to those members who submitted and updated your achievements, as it's not an easy task and needs some diligence and enthusiasm to update the Goals Centre.
Special Congratulations to club members for this achievement.
Only 14 of 67 D9685 clubs qualified.
I do hope you will bring this achievement to the attention of club members and best wishes for a repeat in 2022-23
Thank you for helping to make 2021-22 such a successful year.
cc President 2022-23
Kind regards
PDG Lindsay May OAM

- Topic #1: Politics: Should voting be compulsory in Aust?
- Should it only be compulsory for the Federal Government?
- Topic #2: Health & Family: What’s the value of a second medical opinion?

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.
