District Conference - What a Wonderful Success


Dear Fellow Rotarians and Friends,
Yesterday I said many thank you's,

today I have sent many more and tomorrow I will send even more.
So many people to thank for such a wonderful Conference.
Those that came would agree,
those who couldn't are the poorer for missing out.
Please put next year's Conference in your diary now -
then you have no excuse for missing the highlight of the Rotary Year -
its on 25-27 March 2011 at the Burswood.
Many thanks to the Rotary Club of West Perth for hosting the Conference

and PP Angus and Grace Buchanan for chairing the Conference Committee
and their superb efforts in all areas.
Congratulations to the Rotary Club of Crawley

Quote of the week



SMILE!!!



Once upon a time in England,
a very mean witch was terrorizing the local population,
who finally went to see a wizard to see what could be done about her.
The wizard gave them a potion that would turn the witch into a statue.
The townpeople managed to put the potion in the witch's food.
When she found out about this,
she turned green with rage, but it was too late and the potion worked as expected.
The jubilant population had a big celebration and parade
, and placed the petrified witch in a park as a public example.
Pretty soon, people discovered that the witch had been frozen in a position
that made her a perfect sundial,
and started using her to tell the time of day.
The custom grew and even today,
people often refer to Mean Green Witch Time.

  11. Microsoft Word has many built-in borders that you
    can apply to a paragraph, a page or an entire document. Honor the federal School Wellness Policy that mandates
    that foods with no nutritional value be prohibited.
    This is precisely what I teach my new community members.

  12. Keeping them safe while they are using the net is always an issue.
    Kids can also play up to 16 mini-games (with multiple levels) with their pets in order to earn new items for
    their existing pets, or even earn more pets to play with.
    Somewhere the up and coming internet kids could go where the environment was safe a place where parents could allow their kids access too with out feeling they would be subject to the more adult issues
    online.

  13. Fortunately, you can simplify this task by reading some
    reviews and articles on mmorpgs. The key to choosing the right kind
    of game lies in your child's abilities and interests. Zero spam - only approved senders can send emails to your children.

  14. This is the second game to take place outside
    of the Mushroom Kingdom and also the first game chronologically that
    the Mario Bros. In 2000, my mother entered into the same agreement,
    but now that she's no longer in office, my family and I will continue to support you. Have the kids organize elements of costumes so they'll know where everything is when they decide it's time to play dress-up.
