Good afternoon all

I appreciate you will all be busy with your Club & District Changeovers

and settling into your new year,

however planning needs to progress for this visit by Susanne Rea

I have been very honoured to have Susanne Rea

agree to come to Western Australia to expand the work

she is doing globally for End Polio Now.

If you would like more information on Susanne

and the work she does please check out her Facebook page Susanne Rae.

Susanne has agreed to come to Western Australia

and attend meetings and fundraisers to raise much needed

funds for End Polio Now.

DG Melodie has asked me if I would coordinate the visit

and to find someone or a small committee to organise this visit.

I am prepared to co-ordinate the visit,

but it would be wonderful if some clubs in both

Districts 9465 and 9455 were able to assist.

Susanne looks after her own airfares

and only asks that we look after accommodation

, on the ground transport and meals.

Susanne's programme up to today is

Wednesday 3 August

fly to WA from Cairns

Thursday 4 August

Friday 5 August

Rotary Club of Mill Point

Saturday 6 August

Sunday 7 August

Monday 8 August

Tuesday 9 August

Rotary Club of Applecross (Breakfast meeting)

Fly to Kalgoorlie

Joint Rotary Meeting (Kalgoorlie, Boulder, Hannans)

Wednesday 10 August Fly to Perth

10.10pm fly to Dubai

NB: The Rotary Club of Mill Point have offered to host Susanne

during her stay and to transport her to wherever she needs to be.

If it is going to be more convenient for your Club

to host Susanne and transport her to your meeting please let me know.

Susanne will be hosted by George and Esther Roadnight in Kalgoorlie

. They will look after her transport needs as well.

Would your club be interested in hosting Susanne

for your meeting,a joint meeting of clubs

or some other event to assist District 9465 and 9455

raise much needed funds for End Polio Now.

I have approached a number of Clubs

so it would really be a case of first in best dressed as a number

of you meet early in the week and obviously the easiest way

would be to have Susanne at your meeting.

Once we have some clubs indicate they are interested

we can further develop the logistics required

. ie. home hosting Susanne, her transport to and from meetings

and her meals.

When you respond can you please let me know your Club name

and the best contact person in your club.

I hope this all makes sense.

If you would like further info please give me a call

Cheers

From the left they are Michelle Ford, Dee Potts, Mark Potts,

Eva Peacock, Allan Peacock, Colleen Ross and Jackie Ryan

(of these Mark and Eva were there to support their spouses,

but we will be working on them)

. Inducting these five new members lifts our membership to 31

, ten of whom are ladies (making 32%).

This, we are told,

is just a whisker short of the average percentage for Rotary clubs worldwide.
