eFun Run starting 30th April

Hello from the Rotary Club of North Ryde,
Just a reminder of our eFun Run starting on the 30th April. We would love you to support us by joining in or sponsoring one of our members. Youth Mental Health is an ongoing issue but COVID has certainly made things worse. It's a challenge in so many ways and, in a situation very dear to my heart, it manifests itself particularly in schools.

Best regards
Bob Selinger
Secretary
The Rotary Club of North Ryde

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.

Don't need:

to be invited
to be of a certain age
to be male
to be a business person
to be retired
to attend meetings every week
to be available on weekends.

Must have:

a sense of humour
a willingness to give back to your community
a willingness to pitch in when required
some time available to help out on the occasional weekend event
an interest in the life of the West Pennant Hills and Cherrybrook communities
a desire to contribute in some way to the running of the Club.

If you would like to come along as a guest to see what it is all about just call either: -
Carol Russell (0418 431 157) or President Janelle (0412 064 336)

Rotary Club of West Pennant Hills and Cherrybrook meets every other Monday for Dinner at Springfield House
