Livia left for Brazil about 10 days ago. We are presuming that she was able to travel back home. Chris Brayne (local state member) was the guest speaker. Chris indicated that he was wanting to assist those needing assistance in the lockdown. He was open to questions from members. Greg felt that the government is doing a great job. Greg commented that the lack of tourism has affected the number of jobs in the peninsula, where we now have 5 cases. Greg asked about the need for a quarry when there is limited bushland on the peninsula. Roger asked about the fire risk on Arthurs Seat. Greg asked about a youth drop in centre. David question the possibility of a McDonalds in Dromana and that it was out of place with the neighbourhood. The club thanked Chris for his attendance and his willingness to answer questions. Harry wanted to inform that a school project in Bhutan has a SkyHydrant project that has substantially reduced the number of children feeling ill. Andrew asked about Roteract and whether we have a locally based Roteract? Do we have a feeder organisation to supply members? Rotary Interact clubs could be a possibility. Chris indicated that interact clubs do work, but you need somebody in the school to commit to the interact club.
