We are also hosting a morning tea at the Kununurra School
Preparations are underway for a new fundraising event:
“Walk with Us” to end Polio.
Saturday 31 October 2020
Sugar Loaf Rock carpark to Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse
and return (with 4 km and 7 km options).
We are proposing a one off walk, possibly with a sausage sizzle at the end
and some spot prizes for participants to contribute
to a fun and casual setting.
We are creating sign-in sheets, doing a risk assessment,
and we'll have a map for participants outlining the distances and
course.
You may have seen lots of ads recently for a new movie on Stan
, called I Am Woman.
It’s the story of seventies Australian singing sensation, Helen Reddy.
We’re pleased to tell you that “I Am Woman”
is this year’s Polio Movie Event, raising funds for Rotary’s #1 cause
and we will be screening at the Greater Union Cinemas Morley
, at 6:30pm on Sunday 22nd November.
This is a big movie and its producer says it’s best seen on the big screen.
The great news is that Stan has agreed for Rotary
to have the exclusive rights to show the
movie in Australian cinemas.
Shot in Sydney with a largely Australian cast and crew,
the story traces the life of the singer / songwriter
from the time she arrives in New York and it includes all her biggest hits.
Clearly, arranging gatherings of people in 2020
has a few more challenges than usual!
However,
with the appropriate measures, we can still do it.
This year’s Polio Movie Event is being run as a tribute
to Sir Clem Renouf, the RI President for 1978/79 from Ingham, Queensland.
Sir Clem, who passed away on 11th June,
was a giant in Rotary’s histor
y and was one of the leading figures in our fight
to end polio.
So, let’s have some
fun and raise lots of funds for polio!

Did you make it to our inaugural Charity Quiz Night
on Friday?
Thanks to those who came and to our volunteers for
making the night a success! 
We raised in excess
of $5000 for local charities.
Last evening at the Club's NRG meeting, President Denise
presented the District 9465 funding cheque to representatives
from the uniting Church "Crisis Care" group.
The group represented by Helen and Lyn have been working in th
e Serpentine Jarrahdale community for many years,
focussing on domestic violence victims, the homeless, families in crisis,
school support and many other needy persons.
This $1000.00 and the 'crisis care' packs will go a long way
to helping support these local
initiatives
