The Warracknabeal Trip
Stan Deans reported that the Paddock to Plate event in April provided financial support of $1,500.00 for the Country Education Foundation of Australia (CEFA) and invited our club to consider it has a program very worthy of assistance.
Rotaract News
Brendan Holland on behalf of the Rotaract Club of Barwon invites members of our Club to attend the upcoming Rotaract Club Changeover.
This event will give us the opportunity to thank Michelle Conner for her year as President and wish incoming President Duncan Silcock all the best.
The event is on Saturday 29th June at 5.00 pm at Little Creatures, 221 Swanston Street, Geelong.
We can order food and drinks ordered off the menu at our own expense.
This year, the Rotaractors are aiming for a relaxed social and informal changeover event and will have a short 15 – 20 minutes of changeover formality before enjoying the vibe and atmosphere of Little Creatures.
We are encouraged to invite anyone along who might be interested in meeting the Rotaractors and joining Rotaract.
Weekly Dinner Fees Payable Now By Card
We now have the option of paying for our meals by ‘tap and pay’ with no cash required.
The 2019-2020 membership fees
Membership fees for 2019-2020 will be set at $270.00 full fee and $245.00 with concession.
Our Club Treasurer will send out invoices to members in the early part of July so we can pay direct in the Club’s Bendigo Bank account if we wish to do so.
Vocational Visit and Pride and Professionalism Award
Members interested in attending the presentation of Pride & Professionalism Award to the Andrew Love Cancer Centre (“ALCC”), please advise Warren Norton by email (
wnorton@iprimus.com.au) of you intend to attend.
The event will commence at 11.00am on Thursday 27th June.
There will be no tour of the new facility, as it is used by patients during the daytime.
The presentation of the Award will be made by the Club and this will be followed by a short presentation by a representative of the ALCC.
We then have an opportunity to speak with a number of people who work in different fields within ALCC.

Our Club’s webpage has been updated and service committee chairs can place stories there regarding their projects and activities
This is our public face and Warren and Gary can help members write those stories.
Remember that the Bulletin is for internal Club communication.
