Rotary Acronyms President Esther Roadnight OAM

This year is rapidly drawing to a close with Monday’s meeting being our second last meeting for 2014. In the meantime though we have Norton Gold's Christmas party this Sunday. A huge thank you to members who are able to assist. It should be great fun like last year.

A reminder to bring in your Foundation money box so a tally can be done and the money sent away before the end of the year. The collection box for St Jude's School Tanzania will be with the attendance officer so you can quietly slip your contribution into the box.

Monday 15 December will be a family night. Do invite your family to join us so we can thank them for their support of our efforts for Rotary. Without our family support we could not do what we do for Rotary. With December being family month this is a good time to say thank you.

Our first meeting back in 2015 will be on Sunday 11 January and will be a social event at Ken and Charmaine's. More details will follow shortly.

Then we gear up ready for the great Aussie breakfast on Australia Day. I know some members are going to be away so ask if you can let Gloria know as soon as possible so we can ascertain the numbers who will be assisting on the day from your club.

Enjoy the rest of your week as you Light up Rotary.

From President Esther ...

Rotary Club of Kalgoorlie meets at the Tower Hotel on Mondays at 6.00pm for 6.30pm. Visitors welcome!

HOW DO WE INVOLVE OUR OWN FAMILIES IN ROTARY?

Welcome and include non-Rotarian family members into the Family of Rotary through service and fellowship activities to promote club wellbeing. Rotary should make time for families, not take time from families, and we do that by involving our Rotary Family in: Special family oriented social events

Club meetings for special programs

Fundraisers

Community service projects

Hosting Youth Exchange and GRSP Students and GSE Teams

Surveys seeking fellowship ideas/needs

Father/Daughter and Mother/Son Events

Club Bulletin/Club website updates on family members’ achievements

HOW DO WE CARE FOR AND TREAT FELLOW ROTARIANS AS FAMILY?

Ensure that there are greeters at each Rotary meeting

Assist when they are sick, lonely or having difficulties

Visit them in their homes and ensure that their needs are met

Share their grief during and after a death in their family

Celebrate births, weddings and graduations

Promote diversity of membership

Find ways to honor or memorialise Rotarians in the community

Recognize individual Rotarian’s successes, job changes, and family news in the club bulletin

Encourage Rotarians to sit at tables with guests, new Rotarians and other Rotarians they don’t know
