International Toast
Norm made the surprise move of doing the next 36 years worth of toasts in one go by toasting the great achievements of the Rotary Clubs of Great Britain - England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales (that’s 1800 Clubs with 50,000 members) Oak’s staff were quick to lock the doors to the dining area as a quick calculation verified just how much fruit juice would be necessary, and I think the Board should consider a retroactive motion that requires the Toastee to actually write to each toasted Club - That will keep Norm busy for a while. Not surprisingly, their achievements took a while to document, including:
Improving the lives of people at home and abroad using the skills of members
Promoting peace
Preventing diseases
Access to clean water
Sanitation
Maternal & child health
Develop community ties
Apologies
Pauline & John, Stuart, Ron, Deborah, Neil, Anna, Judy & Julianna
Visitors

Makeups
Alf, Sue, Noel, Mark, Bernie, Ron & Keith at Bunnings for a BBQ for the Men’s Shed where they made $550.
Deborah attended Cal Pac’s Changeover

Speaker
Someone turned the lights off - Rubie is a little blurred
(but the slides came out really well)
To manage everything in her life, Rubie speaks at 100mph, so please forgive this poor blogger as my notes are sketchy and mainly unreadable. This is what I think I wrote:
2013/14 fundraising $3,500 to raise. RSL & Bond Uni funding.
