Bairnsdale Cluster Project 31st July/1st AugustGood Afternoon I hope you are all keeping well. I am writing to you all today in a last bd effort to get a project done that our Cluster has been working on for over 12 months. Working with the East Gippsland Rotary Clubs and Landcare we would like to achieve the planting of 7000 trees over the weekend of 31st July/1st August. Due to the last Covid 19 lockdown our initial planting date has been and gone. We are running out of time to get these trees into the ground. I ask if you could kindly extend an invitation to your members to join us at this wonderful project. I do apologise for the very late notice but I am not prepared to cancel the project. As Victorians are free to travel many of our initial volunteers have taken the opportunity to travel interstate so I am seeking more volunteers. The goal of this project was to plant as many trees as possible over a weekend, to inject much needed income into these towns who during covid have seen very few holiday makers and of course enjoy the fellowship of fellow Rotarians. Peter Sindrey, President of Lakes Entrance Rotary has worked tirelessly to make this project happen and it is up to us to ensure we see the project through. Ideally I would like to confirm our numbers to Peter no later than Monday next week 31st July/1st August:
If you have any members interested in attending or need more information, please do not hesitate to contact me: Donna Martin, Bacchus Marsh Rotary Club 0437 177 031 dlmartin260@gmail.com |

May Rotary updatesMay is..... Every month in Rotary has a special purpose. Refer to your Club Directory if you are planning an event to correlate with the Rotary Calendar. May is also National Myeloma month in Australia. May is National Myeloma Month - and for the Rotary Club of Camberwell, our ROMP project. ROMP - the Rotary Outreach Myeloma Program - is our Club's Centenary year project, in collaboration with Myeloma Australia. Myeloma is an incurable blood cancer, of no known cause, which affects approximately 2000 Australians every year. This RC100 accredited project is designed to provide access for all people diagnosed with Myeloma in Victoria to have easy access to a Myeloma support nurse and support group, run in-person or via virtual means. Our club ROMP committee are pleased to report that all 9 jurisdictions across Victoria, supported by local Rotary clubs, are now linked into this excellent program. And this week, their "38mate" program was launched - checkout the photos below! 38 Australians are diagnosed with Myeloma every week - every myeloma patient, their family and regional myeloma communities deserve ready access to specialist myeloma nurses, information about evolving myeloma treatments and advice about living with myeloma. If you haven't yet received your copy of the ROMP newsletter, ask Adrian Campbell or Peter Allen for a copy.  |
