Things have happened over the past week or two
So here is an attempt to catch up
Firstly our guest speaker, Deanne Holmes, a teacher at Red Hill School spoke most passionately about her trip to Uganda to work as a volunteer in a school in the town of Kasso. Our club plus the Red Hill Lions were responsible for funding the trip. She has able to establish a library for the children and while there made great friends and established ongoing pen friends for her Red Hill Students.
She showed a video of her trip and of here achievements. The video is available for viewing on the Club's computer.
The Trailer for our Annual Raffle has arrived here is David with some of the contents. Anyone with contacts who are willing to help fill the trailer should let David know.
Welcome our new Member (Professor) Rod Troutbeck.
Rod is a Civil Engineer and very involved in the science (engineering) of Road Safety. He we see Rod being inducted by PP Merv.
And just in cas e you forgot there was the Dromana Art Show on the Melbourne Cup Weekend. Just how financially successful it was is still to be determined as not all funds have come in and not all expenses have been paid so we will let you know!!!!
The show was well organised and volunteers from the school community and of course our own members made sure it was well run
And of course the was the small matter of the Halloween Night on the 31st of October that was again very well attended. Congratulations to Greg, Chris and their hard working team for the successful event.

AND BY THE WAY
I don't see much evidence of members accessing and updating their profile on ClubRunner. Just watch out! Fines might be imposed for those unwilling to take up the challenge!!!!!!
It is important that all members do get themselves into the 21st century before it becomes the 22nd Century, as this has become our prime way of communicating. It is important that you all take part in this as it will greatly relieve pressure on others - currently me alone!
