Inaugural Camp Opportunity 2013
The
inaugural District 9455 Camp Opportunity was conducted recently
at the Point
Walter Recreation Centre and culminated in a dinner at which the campers
and
their buddies were presented to the many people who attended.
As
one would expect at such a function,
the organising committee and the corps of
helpers were thanked
and praised by District Governor, Philip Skelton, and
rightly so.
This is a huge undertaking and the work and dedication
of everyone
involved deserves such recognition.
One of the campers, Darren White (pictured above with Rotarian
Brian Atkins,
the Camp Opportunity committee chair) volunteered
as the
spokesperson for the campers.
Darren gave a short, but heart felt,
speech in
which he spoke of the fun they had all had during the week
and thanked the
organisers,
and Rotary, for the opportunity to attend the camp

Must watch.
Never forget these moments of perfection...
A few minutes of perfection
Something for you to enjoy
watch in full screen
I was in a department store when I
heard on the public-address system
that the optical department was offering
free ice cream.
I headed down the escalator to take advantage of the offer,
trying to decide on vanilla or chocolate.
I was nearly drooling when I got to
the optical section and said to the clerk
, "I’m here for my ice
cream."
"Ice cream?" came the reply.
"Sorry. What we have
is a free eye screening."
A mother firefly was taking her children for a walk near dusk,
and
they came to a dark woods.
"All right, kids," she ordered,
"line up, and
whatever happens, don't shine your light.
There are owls in the forest
and they
might fly down and eat you!"
The small fireflies did as they were told,
with the youngest
firefly at the end of the line.
As they were moving carefully along,
suddenly
the mother saw a light far back.
"Stop!" she whispered.
"Who lit the light back there?"
"I did," admitted the youngster.
"You heard what I told you," scolded the mother.
"Why did you disobey?"
"Well," said the little one,
"when you gotta glow,
you gotta glow!"
