Well done Geoff and Jim and Eric and Glenn. I had the most relaxing meeting of the year. Thank you. Good to see our Past President David Brook and Ian Gardner s young bloke. Scott is a school teacher with heart these days you know. I remember when he was interested in buying a hairdressing salon; but that is another story. To further improve the communication between Board and Members, a transcript of the Board s Monthly Meetings will be emailed to you. I trust this initiative will publicize the quality and scope of the projects we undertake and complete. Funds from last year s budget have been allocated. $2500 for Woorinyan s shade cloth for their recreation area and $1000 for the purchase of TV antennas towards our commitment to the Tonga College to be shared with the part payment to ship a container. This week we will celebrate and remember Anzac Day. The meeting will give us the opportunity to reflect and pause to appreciate our Country s proud heritage. The Rotary Club of Frankston North has always honored the Anzac tradition with pomp and ceremony and this year will be no different. Charles.
