Next Meetings

Presidents Report
We all had wonderful fun last Thursday with our own Trivia
night. As always our homegrown talent is the best we could
have. Special thanks to Greg quiz master extraordinaire, Ken,
Master of Ceremonies, Rewa, Shirley and Kathy, orchestrators
of the fun. Thanks it was a great night. See photos on page 3
and 4 (thank you Max).

THURSDAY 7 APRIL
SPEAKER: HOLLY LINDSAY
TOPIC: TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL
CHAIR: CHRIS MARTIN
AV: KEN MIRAMS
CASH DESK: CLEM QUICK & GEOFF STOCKDALE
HOST: BOB MCARTHUR

Prior to the meeting I attended a meeting of the Youth subcommittee and heard of all their wonderful projects. The resilient
Youth project with Bayside Council has finished for this year,
we may be helping again next year. David Rushworth is working on our Primary Schools speech night in June. We will be
supporting this wonderful opportunity for students to learn to
speak in public as a club, as it is on a Thursday this most likely
will be our meeting for that week. The committee discussed
our support of the National Youth Science forum and also of
RYLA (Rotary Youth leadership awards). RYLA is organized
by our own Tony McKenna so we will look to support at least 2
candidates for this. We may be sponsoring Tech Li (our candidate from last year) as a leader, she has been so inspired by
the experience that she is going to be a leader.

CLUB NIGHT
DETAILS TO BE ADVISED

The District Golf day is on the 14th of April at Kingswood. As a

majority of the Club will be playing at the Golf day we are not
going to have a formal meeting, I am canvassing members
about whether they will go to Kingswood for the meal, or we
may have a bar meeting somewhere else. Let me know your
thoughts.

Unless stated otherwise venue is

Victoria Golf Club 6.30 for 7.00

Lots of enjoyable events are on the horizon; its great that we

enjoy ourselves whilst having fun!

Yours in Rotary
Trish

Visit to MITS
Eight Beaumaris Rotarians and one Partner visited
the Melbourne Indigenous Transition School campus
in Richmond.
Executive Director, Edward Tudor and two of his
staff showed the party around the facility which provides boarding capacity for 11 boys and 11 girl students aged about 13 as they transition from outback
living to a place in a conventional Melbourne school.
All the party were impressed by the quality of the
facility and the care that had been taken in making it
right for its purpose. For more details visit:

Wild Abandon
Photograph by Hiroki Inoue, National
Geographic Your Shot
Early spring is in the air, writes Hiroke Inoue, who snapped this photo of
red foxes racing on a snowy hill in Biei,
a town in Hokkaido, Japan. Considered resourceful animals, red foxes
can be found around the world and in
various habitats. They mate in winter.
