Good Day folks We are now three months into this

Presidential year---My, how time flies.

On 12 September, Lion Ian Chellew presented the group of cyclists

raising money for the Muscular Dystrophy Foundation with a

cheque for $500. Last week we gave the University of Wollongong

$110 for their Learning Labs project which will sponsor a child from Kiama High School.

Speaking of the High School, last Thursday I attended the graduation of their year 12 and

was proud to present 4 awards from Kiama Lions to deserving students.

It was nice to see so many Lions and their wives at the funeral of Peter Scifleet’s Grandson

Oliver. I’m sure it was of great support to him and the family

We had a very pleasant Happy Hour on the 16th with a great turnout. Many thanks to Geoff

and Marilyn Heinecke for all their work in making it such a super evening.

Our Egg and Bacon roll stall at the Second Hand Saturday was a great success.

Congratulations to Dennis Wilson and his team. We had fun and made good money. We

hope for a repeat performance at the Holden Show and Shine on 24th November. We were

also helped by the Kiama Scouts who rattled buckets for us. This was a good example of how

two service groups can help each other. I will be looking at other ways they can help us on

other projects

We have bought 2 new lightweight tables for our stall, these were very useful and we will

now look at better signage.

We were also busy at the Driver Reviver area, thanks to all who rallied to help at the last

minute

As you know this week we will have our combined meeting with Minnamurra and

Gerringong Lions. We are going to make it as relaxed as possible with no formal Lions

protocol and making the emphasis on fellowship and enjoyment. So, after the initial

introductions etc, I will be handing over the evening to the “Lords of Misrule” or “Sons of

Anarchy”, whichever description best fits. I’m sure it is going to be a great success and a lot

of fun, so I hope to see as many of you as possible there to represent our club

Thankyou.

On behalf of Dale, Rachel, Rory & Wendi and I, I would like to thank all of those

Lions & friends who passed on their thoughts & best wishes during our Grandson

Oliver’s battle & subsequent passing.

Our ‘Little Man’ appeared to have the ‘Polycystic Kidney Disorder’ that he was

born with, well in hand.

However, unfortunately, the cysts on his kidneys grew rapidly & his kidneys grew

to compensate that growth.

At the time of his passing, his kidneys were the size of a 17 year old’s, leaving little

space for his lungs, & they would continue to grow.

There was nothing that could be done to save Oliver.

Dale & Rachel had to make the decision that we, all as parents, would dread to

make.

Oliver’s respirator was turned off after he & Rory were Baptised.

His fight ended soon after in his Dad’s arms.

He will always be loved & remembered.

Peter & Wendi

MEN CAN FIX ANYTHIN

As mentioned at the last two dinners I am looking for three or

four Lions to help out the Angel Army (the girls who are

organising the Evening of Smiles at Shellharbour Workers Club)

with a BBQ at Woolworths Stoney Range (near Bunnings). They

are using it as a fundraiser to assist with the costs of running their

event.

It is from 10am to 2pm on 16th October.

The following are involved with the markets on that day

Many thanks to President Jerry and the Graham Bradley for volunteering for the Children’s Audio

Theatre display stand. President Jerry presented a set of 5 CDs to LCI President Tam, we sold some

CDs and had lots of enquiries about our project. There were over 700 Lions from Australia, New

Zealand, Indonesia, the South Pacific islands, USA, and Europe. President Jerry presented the

Children’s Audio Theatre project to approximately 600 Lions. We didn’t win, but a lot of people came

to our stand after the presentation to find out more about the project. Regards, David Robson

Dear Lions, Lionesses & Leos The Nurses’ Scholarship Foundation is receiving applications from nurses for scholarships for their ongoing education until November 30 2011. The Foundation board members wish nurses to be aware of this opportunity and further information is available at www.lionsclubssydney.org.au/foundations. The board members would like to be able to increase the number of scholarships awarded and we need your help. Please ask your members to consider making a donation to this foundation. Should a nurse from your area receive a scholarship we endeavour to make a presentation to the nurse at your local Club. Helen Rae 3 year director On behalf of the Nurses’ Scholarship Foundation

Clean can be funny.

One day, a man came home and was greeted by his wife dressed in a very

Sexy nightie. 'Tie me up,' she purred, 'and you can do anything you want.'

So he tied her up and went golfing.
