26 June 2013 Edition Presidents Report from Natalie Jupe

Hello all, It is hard to believe this is my last Presidents Report. This year has gone so very fast. For those not attending our Changeover, I understand that you can not attend for various reasons, but please know that I have enjoyed my year as President. I am really looking forward to Changeover, not so that I can hand back the chains but so that I can celebrate and remind everyone what great work our little club does for our community. I want to thank each and every person who has had involvement with our club in the last 12 months. Your efforts have made this past year fantastic and I have really appreciated the support. We have an exciting year ahead, and I know that things are only going to get bigger and better for us as a club. Anyway, lots of things are still coming up, so please check the calendar and if you can help with any of our upcoming events eg: Gnomes at Floriade, Saturday morning info stall at shop in Riverside, etc please contact me. Yours in Rotary, Natalie

I've created this page because I want to make a difference. I'm inspired by the work that SIDS and Kids do, so I wanted to raise money for them as part of my participation in Red Nose Day 2013. Please help me help them by giving whatever you can using the 'Give Now' button on the page at
