President s Message This week our special speaker is our Exchange Student, Ines who will speak to us about her city, Vienna and her country Austria. It would be good to see a good turn out of members for this special occasion. Some members have completed the Youth Exchange, Form 3. As we don t know all of those who have completed the forms and we need to keep track of them, would you please let either Michael Plunkett who is our Club Protection Officer, or myself know. I would like to remind members also that I am collecting presents to put under the ABC s Christmas Giving Tree. It doesn t have to be expensive and it can be for any age, child through to adult. Please also don t wrap them so that those in charge know what they are handing out. I shall have a box with me at our next two meetings to collect any presents and I shall take it into the ABC on Wednesday of next week. (that is 12 th December). Finally, we shall be having some very special entertainment at this week s meeting and the performers are a very special group of our members who shall remain nameless until they step up to perform. This will be a short skit and definitely not to be missed!!! A Rotary Recreational Fellowship reminder has been sent to me to advise about the 2019 Australian Golfing Fellowship of Rotarians. This will be the 41 st annual tournament from 13 th 17 th May and will be held at the Alice Springs Golf Club. If you are interested in further information, please contact me as I have all the information. President Maree
