Guest Speaker is Peter Tonkin,WALSH BAY ARTS PRECINCT.

Award winning projects have included the Eternity Playhouse, the National Arboretum Canberra, Glebe Town Hall Adaptive Reuse, the redevelopment of the Hyde Park Barracks Museum, the Australian War Memorial London, and Victoria Square and Riverbank Bridge in Adelaide.

A flier has gone to the parents of the pupils of Roseville Public School and the Scouts inviting them to come to our meeting on the 12 March. Hopefully some might enjoy themselves and become a member . We would like a good attendance on that night.

LAST MEETING - 12 FEBRUARYSUSAN WAKEFIELD - DGDistrict Governor Susan Wakefield and her husband, PDG John Wakefield, presented to the Club on 12th February, 2019. It was a far-ranging coverage of the Rotary activities of D9690 including some controversial topics such as the continuation /or not of Rotary Down Under and potential amalgamations.

She also challenges a few “mis-facts” such as the Rotary Foundation only sent money overseas. Examples such as Indian Rotary Club contribution to a global effort to pay for medical equipment in Sydney and some 38 Indian club in Madras, itself, paying into the Foundation to widen our re-appreciation of Rotary.

If you recall there was a fund raiser involving travelling all over the Sydney’s rail network all in one day…’insanity’, we said. It raises some $24K that when added to their 2:1 funding from the Gates foundation saw some 3-4 times that amount go to Polio Plus…unbelievable.

Drought assistance, foreshadowing Conference highlights and John’s Grace Place project were all re-energising information. Apology for having to stop question when we were in full swing but a second speaker was warming up and so Part 1 of the meeting came to a close. A really informative, entertaining and challenging presentation and …all off the cuff. Thank you, DG and PDG John.

Ian Garrard

ANTHONY HAWORTH At our last meeting we were fortunate to have Anthony Haworth the General Manager, accompanied by his wife Jane, of Captain Cook Cruises Sydney speak to us about his past 48 years with the company.

He spoke about how the Company started and progressed to where it is today. I’m sure everyone enjoyed the presentation and we thank him for giving up his time to speak with us. It was a dream of his father Trevor and he told us of the battles along the way to get the company to where it is today. Trevor and Geraldine Haworth were both Paul Harris Fellows with two sapphires and would have been very proud of Anthony’s presentation – they were very community minded people who worked very hard to make their dream come true.

MEETING ON 25 MARCHDEBATE AT LINDFIELD ROTARY - 7. 00 PM

Monday 25 March, we are visiting the Lindfield Rotary Club for a resumption of the debates that we used to have against that club some years ago.

The composition of our team is being kept under tight raps in case there is any attempt by the Lindfield members ( or even our own members) to indulge in a little side wagering to sway the result.

Our Zone Assistant DG Fiona Jenkins has accepted an invitation to be adjudicator and she is not accepteing any “brown paper bags” either.

CLEAN UP AUSTRALIA DAY, SUNDAY MARCH 3

Our Rotary Club has registered again to take part in Clean Up Australia Day (CUAD).

The date for your calendar is SUNDAY MARCH 3. All volunteers are welcome! Volunteers please advise me early – so that we can plan our attack.

Our plan will be to have a few hours (as needed) on the Sunday morning. (time to be arranged – but probably

08:00 start or maybe 09:00 given it is a Sunday)

Our designated site is the Echo Point Park, Roseville Chase. (We usually also cover the area down Babbage Road and under Roseville Bridge).

The local scouts will be joining us. The scouts are considering launching some canoes to help access the waterways, foreshores etc.

We also have a Church group with LOTS of members also registering to join us.Potentially the extra (church group) hands will be far more than we need (depending on RCRC response) – so I am asking for suggestions of nearby sites that we can get them to address.

The sites need to be in the nearby area so that we have a joint, co-ordinated approach. The proposed site(s) also need to have some litter/rubbish pollution so that the volunteers have some worthwhile work to reward their efforts.Nothing more un-rewarding than to spend time on CUAD at a location that is pristine and requires no clean-up!!!

LET ME KNOW ASAP IF YOU WILL BE JOINING US – AND – ANY OTHER SITES IN THE NEARBY (CLOSE) AREA THAT ARE BEGGING TO BE LOVED !

SOME PAUL HARRIS QUOTESPAUL HARRIS’ QUOTESPaul P. Harris (Founder of Rotary), Rotary Club of Chicago, Illinois, USA.

Rotary’s vision: ‘To harness the great power of friendship to help do the world’s work.’

‘Perhaps dreaming is not so bad if one dreams good dreams and make them come true.’

‘Whatever Rotary means to us, to the world it will be known by the results it achieves.’

‘Friendship was the foundation rock on which Rotary was built and tolerance is the element which holds it together.’

‘We humans are creatures of habit, and it is just as easy to acquire the habit of speaking kindly as it is to acquire the habit of speaking unkindly.’

ON A COWBOYS TOMBSTONE-COOLEST HEADSTONE CONTEST

Here are the Five Rules for Men to Follow for a Happy Life that Russell J. Larsen had inscribed on his headstone in Logan , Utah.He died not knowing that he would win the ‘Coolest Headstone’ contest.FIVE RULES FOR MEN TO FOLLOW FOR A HAPPY LIFE:

1. It’s important to have a woman who helps at home, cooks from time to time, cleans up, and has a job.

2. It’s important to have a woman who can make you laugh.

3. It’s important to have a woman who you can trust, and doesn’t lie to you.

4. It’s important to have a woman who is good in bed, and likes to be with you.

5. It’s very, very important that these four women do not know each other or you could end up dead like me.
