Only a matter of days now until our joint fundraiser with Boulder and Hannans Rotary Clubs to raise funds for End Polio Now.
As a club we agreed we would jointly sponsor this night. Have you got your tickets yet?
The screening will be in Cinema 1 which holds 226 people. Between the three clubs we should be able to fill the cinema.
I ask that all members give priority to purchasing and selling tickets. I have a few tickets left from our club allocation that I will have at the meeting on Monday, if I haven't already sold them.
Monday night can you bring along any raffle prizes you have for the night so we can get an idea of the number of prizes that will be available.
Monday night we will be discussing the night and what needs to be done leading up to and on the night.
We will also be going through the constitution again to ensure
all are comfortable with it. A copy has been sent to all members. Please read and feed through any comments for discussion.
Monday 23 March we will be taking part in our next Vocational visit. We will be going to have a look at the Headspace Facility. Hannans and Boulder Club members have been invited to join us. After a tour of the facility we will enjoy a pizza dinner with Headspace personnel and the other Rotarians.
On 30 March we will be holding a Rotary information night.
Each member is asked to provide Cherie with at least one name and contact details of someone to invite to the meeting. The invitations need to be sent out at least 10 days prior to the event so we have numbers in sufficient time for the Tower to organise our meals. We will not be ordering from the menu that night.
Enjoy the rest of your week as you Light up Rotary.
From President Esther ...

PRESIDENTIAL MESSAGE February 2015
As president of Rotary, it's my job to encourage and inspire Rotarians wherever I meet them. It's also my job to listen to what they have to say. Whether it's a successful project or a challenge to overcome, a great Rotary Day or a new idea, I want to hear what Rotarians are thinking, doing, and planning. So whenever I travel, I ask my hosts to talk to me about their clubs. What's going well, where do they see a need to improve, and what can we at RI headquarters do to help?
The answers are always interesting and often surprising. Sometimes I have a suggestion or an idea to contribute; sometimes I am able to make a connection that will move a project forward. Often, I go back to Evanston with ideas and insights that help guide us in our decisions. But what I value most about these conversations are the stories I hear – the stories that, taken together, tell the story of Rotary.
In Atlanta, I attended a Rotary event honoring teachers and heard story after story about the gift of literacy and how it transforms lives. In Istanbul, I attended a wheelchair race and learned how Turkish Rotarians are working to improve the lives of people with disabilities. In Lima, Peru, I talked to a former Rotaractor who waited nearly 20 years to be invited to join a Rotary club, and heard about how returning to Rotary has transformed her life.
I've heard stories that have made me laugh, and stories that have moved me to tears. I've heard stories of how our service changes the lives of others, and how it changes us as Rotarians. When I hear these stories, I can't help but wonder: How many other lives could we change for the better by bringing more people into Rotary? And how many more people could we bring into Rotary simply by sharing our own Rotary stories?
In this Rotary year, I ask all of you to do just that: Share your Rotary stories. Tell them to your friends, on social media, and through Rotary.org. Our Rotary stories are what inspire us, and what encourage others to join us; they help light up our service, as we work to Light Up Rotary..
