A big shout out to Helen and Robyn. At the new Rotarians night Susan from the Dalkeith club was so inspired re the music night that they are getting a bus to come along!

Showed us the wonderful Rotary boards, which we can use to show just what we have been doing.

Involvement at the Men’s Shed – similar to last year is on 30 October - he has called out for volunteers to help on the day.
Laith
Lemboggan – total donations so far are $50 000. They send their thanks. Locals are trying to raise money also – collecting rubbish from beaches and being paid in bags of rice.

Potential International project. This has been started by the Rotary Club of Bangalore and is a program training women to be more independent. This could include some form of business – helping to get them out of the poverty cycle. Ahmed from Morley Rotary has helped here – he has a connection to relevant locals in India. Suggested that we get him as a guest speaker in February. We may decide to apply for a District Grant.

What is happening with Stirk Park? The City has an agreement for us to sign which has a few sticking points. Discussion is ongoing however the committed funds will be going to the project.
Krys
Belmont and Mundaring have been invited to join us on 12 October.

Josh Crisp from Rotaract has signed up for the biggest shave in March 2022. Franziska suggested that our red mailbox income could go towards it. This was accepted by the club members, Sheryl suggested to offer Josh, to do the shave at the markets to raise further funds.
