Again there was a terrific turn-out of members for our combined Annual and Club meeting last Monday. In what may well be the fastest Annual Meeting on record last years Minutes were accepted, the audited financial statements moved and seconded and next years Board members voted in in under five minutes. Congratulations and thank you to the members who have made themselves available for Board positions for 2021-22 (it is an unusual process where members get voted into Board positions in November but do not take up the positions until next July) The Board members for 2021-22 are: - President for 2021-2022: Cathie Macmillan
- President Elect for 2022-2023 Edda Williams
- Immediate Past President (& VP) Tony Laycock
- Secretary: Rosemary Waghorne
- Treasurer: John Braine
- Director Club Service: Ant Balocca
- Director Community Service: Bill Granger
- Director International Service: Greg Vero
- Director Youth Services: Anne Brown
- Vocational Services: Bob Lambert
Also it is great that the recent tradition of the Club having a female President will continue with Cathie Macmillan taking on the role for 2021-22 and Edda Williams for 2022-23. Other matters mentioned the meeting included: - Ed advised that DIK have a acquired a large quantity of the footwear known as crocs. It was agreed the club would request a supply for distribution to contact organisations of the Club.
- Edda indicated that a number of new books are available on the Club's website at https://canterburyrotary.org/page/let-s-stay-connected-project
- John McCaskill thanked all members and friends who supported last week's successful Your Garden - Our Future webinar
- Ted mentioned that the Camberwell Sunday Market will be re-opening this Sunday 6 December.
- Edda spoke glowingly about her worm farm and will be bringing a supply of the very fertile worm juice along to next week's meeting to give to anyone who would like to use it in their garden.
Val then outlined a new FORaMEAL initiative called the Race Against Hunger Challenge. Over recent months many friends of the Club have indicated they are available to assist the FORaMEAL program and in great news many of these volunteers are students. The idea is for individuals to set challenges and in striving to achieve the challenge help raise funds for the FORAMEAL program. Please click on this link forameal.org to see the full details
