Editor's Note
As both the President, Jason Climo and Past President Lee-Ann Lines, are otherwise engaged this week (work and RYLA) I shall update Rotarians with the recent activities.
RYLA has got underway with the usual teams competition to erect a shelter box in record time.
The RYLA BBQ on Tuesday night (tommorrow Feb, 8th) will replace the usual rotary meeting.
Grant Rees, President Elect, ran our first meeting and provided a very entertaining quiz to Rotarians. Everyone enjoyed reconnecting after the summer break. Our next full meeting will be held on February 15.
The Board met on February 2. Notes of interest include:
Endorsement of 6 candidates that businesses have financed for RYLA
Endorsement of Jamie McKenzie by our club
Offer of ongoing support to KAPOW
Discussion of a joint international project with the Rotary Club of Glenorchy in Tasmania
The Te-Anau social weekend is on track with good numbers, booked accommodation and activities
Review of two trust grant requests within Rotary criteria to determine acceptance
Yours in Rotary
Editor (relieving) Gabrielle
P.S. Apologies for the delayed bulletin publication, other activities took priority.
IPP Lee-Ann is looking after the programme, duties, meetings and attendance. If you have any suggestions/ideas for the programme please let her know. If you have a duty and can’t attend, please make sure you find a replacement.
The 3 Minute Talk - to make sure we run to time, please keep to between 3-5 minutes, unless pre-arranged with President Jason.
Apologies - Must be received to queenstownrotary@gmail.com before 12pm Tuesday at the latest. Please be aware that you will be invoiced for your meal if no apology is received. If you are unsure if you can make it each week, you can put in a permanent apology and let us know when you do come. It is easier to inform the restaurant of an extra meal than the Club having to pay for meals not claimed.
