Ladies and Gentlemen,
As we are all aware we are now in the grips of the COVID-19 pandemic and as such I just thought I would point out a few things to you about the affect it is having on our Rotary Club and our program of events.
1. The Pakenham Show has been cancelled.
2. District 9820 Conference has been cancelled.
3. Our weekly meetings will continue but please refrain from handshakes and personal contact on greetings.
4. Anzac Day Services and our involvement are under discussion within our Board, as yet no decision has been made if we will be involved this year.
5. Proposed Walk Against MND scheduled for the 3rd of May is under discussion with our Board, as yet no decision has been made but I doubt we will be participating.
6. Monthly Rotary Community Dance is under discussion with our Board, as yet no decision has been made but it is possible that they will be suspended.
7. Debutante Balls will be proceeding at this stage but will be constantly reviewed over the coming weeks and months.
So as we can all see this current pandemic situation has an affect on us all and we do need to be vigilant and do our part to protect us all.
But we do not want you all to think that everything is all bad so here is something sent in by George Blenkhorn to maybe put a smile on your faces.
The only panic buying in my life has been when the Bar Man called last orders.
