Next Meeting Wed 8 July

This is one of our major events of the year, and will see President Simon hand over the reins of the Club to President-elect Mark. 

We are pleased that District Governor Shane Burette will join us for this important event in our calendar.

Due to the clash with the last State of Origin match, the meeting will start a bit earlier than normal, with fellowship (drinks and chit-chat) from 5:30pm with the formal meeting at 6pm.  The aim is to conclude the formalities by 8pm, in time for the kick-off.  Go the Blues!

Did you know - over the past ten years our Club and its predecessors, Randwick and Botany have raised and donated over $600,000 to worthy causes in our local and international communities!

The guest speaker was Peter Charlton, President of the Waverley Community Men's Shed.  It was great to be joined by several members of the Rotary Club of Maroubra.

Peter outlined how the Men’s Shed is a place where members with a range of skills and experiences can come together to nurture their woodworking skills, exchange ideas, discuss their experiences and get involved in community projects.

His major concern is to find a new home for the Waverley Shed, as the current site is under redevelopment.  He is looking for a site the size of a tennis court, but has had no luck with Council, local Churches, etc.

Following the formal part of the meeting we adjourned downstairs for dinner.
