Good Afternoon Everyone, and thank you, Karen, for sending out the Registration Forms for the District Changeover Dinner to be held at Beerwah Community Hall on the 14th June, in only about 5 weeks time!! First of all , I would like to thank Maleny Club for doing all the preliminary work on this, they have done a great job. Between them and Glasshouse Club, it will be run like clockwork on the night!!! We have tried to come up with a very interesting and fun night, with excellent food and entertainment, and short speeches, for a very reasonable price of only $40.00 per person!! We would like to see as many people from our District there, as possible, so please come along, and join us to enjoy the night, helping Dai to finish off his year, and to help get my year started with a bang!!! Please make sure you have nominated for one or more of the 9 trophies which will be given out on the night, and I believe Dai will also be making a Presentation to the Clubs which qualified for a Presidential Citation. It should be a great night, please take advantage of the low cost, which we have done especially for you, come along, and really enjoy this District Changeover!!!! See you all soon, Kind Regards, Trevor
SUNSHINE FM promotion
HF and LS have been working hard to get their cluster clubs to work more closely together. They have suggested that their clubs get together and jointly market Rotary and Rotary projects in partnership with Sunshine FM 104.9. This idea had been discussed with Ken O’ Flaherty the Station Manager, who indicated that SFM would support the initiative.
Clubs are generally supportive in principle and are waiting for feedback from LS and HF re SFM’s response, a broad outline of how it will work and confirmation of the costs involved.(proposed $200 per club per annum) This has been approved at Board
