Rotary Club of Mount Barker
Earlier
this year the Mt Barker Club
ran out of presentation flags the ones that clubs
provide to each other when visiting each other
We have a wonderful NEW flag to give our
visitors
Designed by local schoolchildren
and just to make a big show we had a FULL pull up banner made as well;
It Represents the Radio Tower on Mt Barker Hill

and much more

Introducing the Interact Club of
Subiaco
As the school year drew to
a close,
there was excitement amongst a number of Perth Modern School senior
students.
The newly established Interact Club of Subiaco
received its formal
Charter from Rotary International –
presented by the District Governor Angus
Buchanan
and Tony Hollingsworth, President of the sponsoring club, the Rotary
Club of Subiaco.
Established in June 2014,
this Rotary Club for 12-18 year olds
came about following
the experiences of several
students at the 2012, 2013 and 2014 Rotary Youth Programs of Enrichment
(RYPEN).
In participating in these student leadership weekends,
Liam Finlay and
Jason Russell recognized that an Interact Club
would provide the perfect base through
which to make their community
and social service projects coherent and located
in a bigger picture.
In their initial six months, members of the Club
have been
active in fundraising and have already sponsored
an international service
project and one locally.
The Principal of Perth Modern School, Ms Lois Joll
said,
“Community service is an integral part of the school curriculum
at Perth
Modern School and this student led initiative
is a great vehicle for such
service.
These students have established a sustainable framework
for future
young people at the school

VisitCostaRica
- Save the americans
Costa Rica is basically the most amazing
country on the planet,
and its wide variety of
adorable animals are a huge draw
for tourists from all over the world.
If you
have a hard time wiping the smile off your face
while watching turtles and
sloths sing about their country,
you'll have an even harder time being unhappy
when you book your plane ticket here!
----------------------
I know there is a particularly Politically Correct period
around the
end of the year so I wanted to send
some sort of holiday greeting to my
friends,
but it is so difficult in today's world to know exactly
what to say
without offending someone.
So I met with my solicitor yesterday,
and on his
advice I wish to say the following:
Please accept with no obligation,
implied or implicit, my best
wishes
for an environmentally conscious,
socially responsible, low stress,
non-addictive,
gender neutral celebration of the winter/summer solstice
holiday,
practiced with the most enjoyable traditions of religious persuasion
or secular practices of your choice with respect
for the religious/secular
persuasions and/or traditions of others,
or their choice not to practice
religious or secular traditions at all.
I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling
and
medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset
of the generally accepted
calendar year 2015,
but not without due respect for the calendars of choice
of
other cultures whose contributions to society
have helped make our country
great
(not to imply that it is necessarily greater than any other country)
and
without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability,
religious
faith or sexual preference of the wish-ee.
By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms:
This
greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal.
It is freely transferable
with no alteration to the original greeting.
It implies no promise by the
wisher to actually implement
any of the wishes for her/himself or others
and is
void where prohibited by law,
and is revocable at the sole discretion of the
wisher.
This wish is warranted to perform as expected
within the usual
application of good tidings for a period of one year
or until the issuance of a
subsequent holiday greeting,
whichever comes first, and warranty is limited
to
replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish
at the sole discretion of
the wisher.
Merry Christmas!!!
