Invitation to visit RC Pennant Hills

Hi Neville,
Trust you have settled in as the president of your club. I just wanted to confirm the details of the meeting we invite you and your members to come to on Wednesday August 2nd.
We have Tim Sowden coming to speak about the Thornleigh Zig Zag Railway, which has generated a lot of interest lately.
We meet at the Pennant Hills Community Health Centre, 5 Fisher Avenue, Pennant Hills at 6.30 for a 7.00pm start. We’ll have tea and coffee available but a reminder that there is no meal available. Could you let me know a day or so before how many we can expect to join us on the night.
Regards,
David Firth

Editors Note:
Ros Hogan has confirmed she is happy to collate numbers. Please email Ros if you wish to attend.
I suggest an RSVP by 5pm 31st July.

Lets Go

The Perfect Murder - Updated

Hi again.

An update.
We have thirteen attending this activity, being:

Sharpe’s
Stanton’s
Little’s
Henderson’s
Janelle, plus outgoing exchange student Georgie Ryman and her mum Nicole
Neville and incoming exchange student Iisa Vilander

Dinner suggestion; Bayview Hotel, 2/16 The Boulevarde, Woy Woy

Say meet 6.00pm to 6.15pm in the bistro.
Clive has advised whilst pre-show drinks are available from 7.00pm, suggested about 7.30 with the show starting at 8.00pm
As I will make a reservation, please let me know if you prefer to pass on the bistro.

Whilst I have made some motel enquiries and the Mantra Ettalong Beach, is an option.

Another far more affordable option is the Ibis Budget at Gosford.
At this stage Stanton’s and Little’s are the only ones to express interest
I will leave it with you to make your own reservations.

Likewise, I will leave it with the individuals to organise carpooling, as applicable.

Any questions, please give me a call.

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 Neville (0412 064 336)
