Rotary friends and friends of Rotary The good name of the Camberwell Rotary Art show has been evident once again with very strong numbers on the website since the launch on the 10th July, Art Sales numbers as of last Tuesday 20th were over $75,750 which accounts for 79 paintings sold, we need to keep the momentum going as a club, it’s not too late to get cracking and spread the word with friends ,family and colleagues to make sure we come home strongly in the final week of the show
Thanks to Andrew Hunter as guest speaker last week to step up at the last minute and give us a wonderful visual of Rotary in Action on a RAWCS project to Samoa
The PP night has been rescheduled to when we are back meeting in person
August is shaping up to be a fantastic month for Camberwell Rotarians
A couple of dates to save :
4th August District Governor Dale & Maureen will be visiting the club, a night not to be missed
Sunday 8th August: After nearly two years work, this mutli club R100 playground project is now completed and ready for the official opening by our honorary member the Mayor of Boroondara, Cr Garry Thompson, and Rotary District 9800 Governor Dale Hoy. The opening will be accompanied by a fabulous Family Fun Day from, 12 noon - 3:00pm, as we all know PP Murray & Teresa and her community services committee were actively involved in this R100 project and as a club we should be there in numbers to support the grand opening of this project.
Wednesday 18th August: The Past Presidents night has been rescheduled, the plan is for a partners night with Spitting image catering
The Hawthorn Makers Market has been scheduled for Sunday 1st August 10am – 3pm, as a club we need this fundraising activity to continue to be successful, wouldn’t it be great if we all try and support this wonderful activity and drop in and support the stall holders
Next week 28th we will be meeting again on Zoom with David Dippee from DIK presenting.
The club also sends its condolences ,during this sad time to Patty Laufernberg who’s mum aged 92 passed away last Tuesday.
That’s it from me for this week, have a good week in Rotary and Stay safe
