Well Team, by the time that you receive this week’s bulletin, the NZ Open will have been played and won.
This is the annual mobilisation of Queenstown Rotary Club members in support of this International event.
BBQ’s, along with Carparking have been the focus, and the events that I have attended have been well presented and well received by the NZ Open organisers.
Can I extend my thanks to all 28 members who have volunteered their time, and some on more than one occasion to ensure the success of the week.
Special thanks to Ashley Adams who has expertly led and coordinated this event along side the NZ Open Organisers. The Club appreciates your significant contribution into the success of this fund raiser.
A couple of weeks ago we had a presentation from Lachlan Kidd who we had supported to the Annual Science Forum in Auckland.
Lachlan has applied on his own cognisance to attend the International Science Forum in London, and he spoke to this and his future career aspirations during his speech. On the back of that we encouraged Lachlan to submit a formal application to the Club for some level of further support to assist him to achieve his goal. The Board have recommended to the Trust that we support Lachlan to the tune of $1000,00
Our speaker this week is our very own Keith McIntosh. Keith and Heather have just returned from the DGE Training Forum in Florida,
Keith will unpack his reflections on his trip to us on Tuesday evening. We look forward to hearing him speak.
The Child Cancer Collection will be held in March, and Grant will be seeking support to man this collection on Friday 14th March at New World Remarkable Park.
I am sure that you will support this worthy endeavour for the benefit of the Children who navigate the challenges of Cancer. Thanks Grant.
Look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday evening at the Holiday Inn.
Take care and stay safe.
Cheers
Ross
