Presidents Report 22nd November

Hi to everyone, well what another great week at the Rotary Club of Pakenham
A special welcome was given to our District Governor Lynne Westland and her husband Trevor who were
our special guests at our meeting last Tuesday night, along with our Assistant Governor Ian Symonds and
his wife Judy. A big welcome.
It is always a pleasure to welcome Rotarians in this capacity to get a little more of an insight as to
how/where our club is heading
We started with a meeting with Lynne and the Board members and had a really good meeting. Lynne was
impressed with the club as a whole and as such all of Rotary Club of Pakenham should take a pat on the
back
Rosa gave us her talk on her coming and goings of the past few weeks and it sounds like she is really
enjoying her stay in OZ
So glad everyone is getting behind Helen with the Trailer Raffle Roster. It is such a huge job and I do hope
Helen knows how much our club appreciates her input.
If you haven’t put your name down there is still time and every little helps.
Tim Mepstead has organised the end of year School awards. Tim will let everyone who put up theirs hands
at the meeting with the date and times to refresh your memory.
For those who attended the 100 th Year Celebration at the CCC last night I am sure you will all have had a
great time AGD Janne Spiers along with husband PDG Charlie Spiers were the main instigators of the
evening and thanks must go to them for a really good night.
That’s all from me only to say remember the Partners Night on Tuesday night 29 th ..I am sure this will be a
lot of fun and our last meeting for the year will be our Christmas Breakup on the 20 th December ant the
Cardinia Club Hotel in Beaconsfield
Catch you on Tuesday
Lyn B
