The weather made sure it was a quieter market on Sunday but club enthusiasm shone bright at our

Mothers’ Day Market. Thanks to all who helped out on the day, it was good to see so many of you there.

Talking of seeing people it was great to see Wayne and Christine Abbott there doing a bit of shopping.

Hopefully they will be back at our meetings soon. After an initial shower the sun came out and so did a

steady flow of customers who knew where to bag a Mother’s Day bargain. We even ran a Mothers’ Day

raffle which was won by one of our stallholders, Shelly Craig from Butterflies and Beetles, a worthy winner

seeing she is a mother of 4.

We were lucky to have D’arcy Lunn from The Global Poverty Project speak to us about their End of Polio

campaign at our meeting on Tuesday. He gave us an amazing update to a program that is synonymous with

Rotary International, the End Polio Now campaign.

D’arcy has spent the last 13 years, travelling the world, teaching and working in developing countries such

as:

• Canada – With Dr Bob Scott promoting Polio advocacy

• Pakistan – Looking at Polio programs there, working with Rotaract vaccinating people

He told us how The Global Poverty Project works with organizations supporting them and their Polio

projects like Rotary’s End Polio Now Project. We heard some statistics that are amazing in how we have

nearly eradicated this disease from the planet but also heard that the threat will always be there as long as 1

person has the disease. For example:

• We are down to the last 1% of people to be vaccinated in countries like Nigeria, Afghanistan and

Pakistan

• Last year 232 cases of Polio were recorded world wide

• This year saw the 1st outbreak of Polio in Somalia since 2008

• There was a shortfall of $1 Billion in funding last year alone which partly equates to 144 Million

vaccinations not being produced

He left us with the thought that “small actions by many people will make a change”.....I think change is

good!! An insightful presentation on a program that sometimes gets overlooked, thanks for coming in D’arcy

and reminding us that there is still plenty of work to be done.

P.S.....Happy 17th

Birthday RC Magill Sunrise!! President Greg

Australian History

1855 – Australia's first branch of the Royal Mint (London) commences operations in Sydney.

World History

1948 – The State of Israel is proclaimed.

1973 – Skylab I is launched.

Thought for the Day 1: Birthdays are good for you. Statistics show that the people who have the

most live the longest.

Thought for the Day 2: The first sign of maturity is the discovery that the volume knob also turns to

the left.

It was Round 7 and 7 games correct with a 7 point margin had Greg Schuetze in 7th heaven. The

Magill Club President led from the front this week. Many found it a tough week, with 11 people

failing to score as well as the tippers who forgot to submit tips this week.

Meanwhile, it’s currently tight at the top of the leader-board with only 3 points separating the top

half of the field. To date there has been a lot of focus on the top score. For something different

this week, the prize will go to the best (lowest) “Margin” from the West Coast v North Melbourne

game (ie. the difference between your selected margin and the actual margin for the game,

regardless of who wins). Your total tips will only be used if a tie-breaker is required.

The scores will be a tie-breaker if required. So pick your Friday night margin with care. Good luck.

Editor’s Note: You can always download an algorithm from the net to help come up with the

solution to Lindsay’s ‘something different this week’.
