It’s been a busy week -  bbq’s on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday.  Thank you to all who are helping, we couldn’t do all of this without you.

Lyn and Simon Sickerdick are looking for Musicals that will be copied into the Music for Dementia Library especially Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals like Jesus Christ Superstar, Hair the musical and others.  If you can help contact Lyn.

On a sad note, Rob and Jan Smyth are relocating to Adelaide to be closer to family and specialists. It is sad to see them go but wish them all the best with their move.

This coming week’s meeting is one not to miss.  There has been much publicity about cyber security and scams via email and text messages lately.  Sergeant David Brown will certainly tell us what to look out for, how to tighten up our internet security and answer some of our questions.  A good meeting to include partners & friends.

Also on Tuesday will be welcoming new member Penny Heighes.  I spoke to Penny on the telephone and was amazed at what she has and is involved in. I personally am very interested in her involvement with carriage driving. I have driven a cart drawn by Shetland Ponies but don’t think that comes close to what Penny does.

Thought for the week from Thomas A. Edison:

"Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time." - Reflects the determination and commitment in Rotary's pursuit of community service and global change.

The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:

• FIRST: The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service;
• SECOND: High ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society;
• THIRD: The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business, and community life;
• FOURTH: The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.
