Cambridge Rotary Bulletin 126 23rd August 2018 (Aug 23, 2018)

This Week – Our AGM

Some key points from our AGM last night …..

Bev presented us with a great overview on the financials
Our subs will increase by $5 a month – the first increase in fees for a number of years
We welcomed three new honorary members – Deb Robinson, Sue Bullick and Anne Blewden – in recognition of the wonderful support they have given and still give to our club on projects like Days For Girls and Bookarama
David Cooney presented us with the final report from The Cambridge Rotary Club Community Trust (as the trust is now independent from Rotary Cambridge). David also highlighted the $75,000 donation made to Community House.

Thanks

The CHS Hockey team catered our dinner this week and in return received a cheque for $750 which will go towards their Auckland based competition. It’s always great having our high school teams cater for us so thank you very much.

This Coming Week

On Thursday, it’s all about ocean racing as we hear from Anthony Merrington on the Volvo Ocean Race – I am sure there will be some interesting tales from Anthony to keep us entertained.

Marshalling for Harriers.

September 16^th Rotary Cambridge is marshalling and manning the water stations for Cambridge Harriers, like we normally do.

I will be coordinating this event and require a big input from our members.

This date has been in Bulletin for a number of weeks and I hope you have all kept this date free.

NB.You have all been included on my list unless you apologies directly to me, or you are on LOA or are of the older generation.

The day will be no longer than 9am till 1pm. Most stations will be between 1 and 2 hours duration.

Partners and children would also me most welcome to help.

I will provide a list and maps closer to the time.
