“Back when Rotary became involved with polio, most people thought volunteer organizations were about tackling projects down the street or across town – not across the world. Rotary changed all that, and in the process, you reminded us that there is no human problem so daunting that it can’t be overcome by people.”
- Bill Gates, Sr.

Best Caddy Comment #6 Golfer: "You've got to be the worst caddy in the world." Caddy: "I don't think so sir. That would be too much of a coincidence."
Best Caddy Comment #5 Golfer: "Please stop checking your watch all the time. It's too much of a distraction."

This weeks meeting will feature Mike Rolfe, secretary of the Laurieton Men's Shed who will update us on its progress

the new Laurieton Men's Shed telling us about the progress that has been made in getting that project operational.
Graham has recently had his foot operation which seems to have been successful and is now well into the cabin fever stage of his recovery. He hopes to be able to resume his Monday night escapes from home in the near future. No news on Vince at this stage so we hope he is feeling a little better.
Don’t forget that the meeting after next, the 13th Sept, will be a partners night and will feature an official visit from the DG Jo Wilkin.

Following the movie there will be a set price banquet menu dinner at the Chiang Mai Thai restaurant in Bold St Movie alone is $7 and the dinner will be $20. Please bring your partners and friends along for a wonderful evening. The week following that is the Public Mental Health information Forum . A special diary note for this.
