Shirts
Ann advised that our new shirts are available and can be collected from John Vichie’s shop. However, Ann will deliver Satellite members shirts to members at the next face to face meeting and John will bring the shirts to Monday meeting for Monday members.
Monday International Fun and Fellowship
Julie has organised some crosswords to challenge our thinking during this focus month of numeracy and literacy, thank you Julie. John will be presenting as Julie is taking a well earned break.
Last Monday zoom meeting was a very productive meeting. It was also a very interesting meeting where we learned the importance of Club Fellowship.
Thank you to all members and friends of Rotary who helped out this month with Meals on Wheels. Please remember that the time to be at the hospital is 10.45am.
I linked in to the Rotary Zone 8 virtual conference and found what I listened to very inspiring. “one size in Rotary doesn’t fit all” There are many different ways that Rotary members can volunteer and volunteering certainly inspires members and has been the way to health and happiness. Covid has put a damper on many planned events, but it has also been the inspiration of other events and activities.
At the meeting we discussed the negatives in the recent “my experience in Rotary” survey to members and were able to find many ways and ideas to resolve those negative.
Jim Barnes has confirmed that the Junior Craft Event will go ahead – refer event dates.
Membership has planned a breakfast meeting on the 13th October, please contact Jim Baxter for details if you wish to join the committee.
