Rotary Club of Karrinyup








This week marked the end of an era as Rotary Club of Karrinyup (District 9455) 
handed over the Foodvan to Rotary Club of Ballajura Malaga
 to facilitate their fundraising for charity work.
 The van has given great service over the years but
 with the administration of the Stirling Farmers Market
 now taking up a major part of our human resources, 
it is time to transfer its use and benefits to another club.
 Rotarians working together for humanity!













 and
all shared fellowship, a meal and listened to Barry Sammels
 our Mayor and Rockingham Rotary member who shared
 some amazing and interesting facts about our city.
Feel free to tag yourselves.

Where Did I Park My Donkey


If you have ever had trouble finding your car
 in a parking lot then you’ll understand the frustration
 this man experiences as he tries to remember
 where he parked his donkey.
 Many donkeys look similar so when they are all
 parked together it can be very confusing
 to find your donkey.























Fun evening with Mentalist Lior Suchard ,
 Gerard Butler and friends 
are blown away in a Funny experience
