Thirty one members and 21 guests were welcomed to tonight’s meeting. A special welcome to 18 members of the Rotary Club of Beecroft whose dinner meeting venue is undergoing renovation. Our guest speaker: Adrienne McLean spoke about home care for the elderly.

Thought for the week. Have any members read the March edition of Rotary on the Move. If not I recommend you read it http://rotaryclubofmiltonulladulla.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/2018-03-Rotary-on-the-Move-Newsletter-Zone-7B-and-8.pdf. Read about the Rotary of Club of Invercargill. The model being used by that club is spreading rapidly through NZ. While you are reading Rotary on the Move it is worthwhile reading the article from PDG Euan Miller, of D9520 in South Australia - “THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS OF ROTARY CLUBS” We have the Car Run on Sunday. – starting 9.30 at Geranium Cottage. Next Monday we meet at West Pennant Hills Sports Club to be guests of West Pennant Hills & Cherrybrook Lions and commemorate ANZAC day. 6.30 for 7 pm start. Until we meet again on Monday April 23rd for more fun and fellowship, have a great week making a difference. President Colin Sharpe |
