Sharing That Common Interest
!
In the month of June we recognise the wonderful opportunity
that we have as Rotarians to share in fellowship
and friendship through dedicated Rotary Fellowship Groups,
as part of the worldwide Rotary Global Networking Groups.
These groups allow individual Rotarians,
Rotarian spouses and Rotaractor’s
from all over the world to join together
to focus on a common interests.
Through these groups you can:
• Share fellowship and friendship with thousands of Rotarians.
• Meet other Rotarians with a similar hobby or vocational background.
• Share a common interest in worthwhile recreational sporting activities.
• Collaborate with Rotarians who are dedicated to a particular area of service.
• Explore new opportunities for service.
• Have fun and enhance their Rotary Experience.
Whether you are interested in golf, humanitarian service
or gourmet cooking you can
connect with Rotarians who share your interest.
Rotary Fellowships enable members
to communicate, exchange information and ideas,
and build relationships.
By joining one of the 70 odd Global
Networking Groups a whole new world of opportunity may open to you.

One of the best fellowship programs is the Rotary Friendship Exchange program.

This program gives Rotarians and their partners,

or single Rotarians the opportunity to experience other cultures
firsthand, by participating in reciprocal visits with Rotarians

from other countries and their families.

The goal of the program is to advance international understanding,

goodwill and peace through person-to-person contacts

across national boundaries.

Whether recreational, vocational, or medical/health-related,

Rotary Fellowships unite Rotarians to foster friendship,
international understanding, and service

in exciting and innovating ways that benefit the global community.

Subject: FW: SPONSORSHIP - INDIGENOUS STUDENTS

Hello everyone,
These Indigenous students will receive scholarships in 2010.

Unfortunately at this time we do not have Rotary Clubs

who are co-sponsoring them.

If clubs in your area can help out – it would be great.

The scholarship is $5,000 per year with half from the government

and half from a sponsoring Rotary club.

Thanks everyone,
Regards,
Joy

A ROTARIAN
A Rotarian is a person who digs wells from which they will never drink

A person who vaccinates children they will never meet
Who restores sight for those they will never see
Who builds houses they will never live in
Who educates children they will never know
Who plants trees they will never sit under
Who feeds hungry people, regardless of colour, race or politics
Who knows real happiness, can only be found by serving others

Quote of the Week

--------------------------------

SMILE!!!!!!!!!!

Be Mean to Accountants Week

When does a person decide to become an accountant?
When he realises he doesn't have the charisma to succeed as an economist.
-

Why did God invent economists?
So accountants could have someone to laugh at.

-

What does an accountant use for birth control?
His personality.

-

What's the definition of unlikely?
A photo-spread in Playboy entitled The World's Top Accountants - Nude!
-

What did the terrorist who hijacked a plane full of accountants

threaten to do if his demands weren't met?
Release one every hour.

-

The accountant's prayer:
Lord, help me be more relaxed about insignificant details,

starting tomorrow at 10.53:16 am,
Eastern Daylight Saving Time.

-

What do you call an accountant without a spreadsheet?
Lost

-

If an accountant's wife can't get to sleep, what does she say?
"Tell me about work today, dear"

-

How does an accountant make a bold fashion statement?
He wears his grey suit instead of the blue

What's an auditor?
Someone who arrives after the battle and bayonets all the wounded.

-

Laws of Accounting
1. Trial balances don't
2. Bank reconciliations never do
3. Working capital does not
4. Return on Investments never will
-

A fool and his money are soon audited

-

Accountants aren't boring people.

They just get excited over boring things.

Darryl Mills from the Dili Rotary Club in Timor.

Darryl has been said to be the busiest Rotarian in the world.

He is the Rotary Liaison Officer for Timor.
Darryl’s role commenced in 2002.

He has lived in Dili since 2003.

Darryl has a three part role.
1. He manages the containers and humanitarian aids that are sent to Timor.

He receives a container about once per week.

A network of Catholic sisters distribute the goods.

Once the system involved almost anything

and everything unwanted being sent to Timor;

these days a wish list is created

and needed goods are delivered.
2. ROMAC – Rotary Oceania Medical Aid for Children.

About 30 children with life threatening conditions

receive the much needed surgery each year.

It is a struggle to obtain the surgery for the children these days,

however, a great deal of success has been achieved.
3. Darryl also runs between 30 and 50 projects concurrently

. For example, the Kalamunda Rotary Club

runs an alternative ‘Schoolies’ Program,

where students do community work in Timor

instead of the usual things leavers do.

In October

10 Timorese young people will spend 8 weeks at Fairbridge;

the following year the Rotary Club of Dili

will take 10 indigenous young people from WA.

-
ed...Daryl was in Perth this week and spoke at several Rotary Clubs

The above picture was taken at the Rotary Club of Bentley/Curtin meeting on May 31st

and the above information was taken from the Rotary Club of Pinjarra Club Bulletin

where Daryl was Guest Speaker on June 2nd

Australian Rotary Festival of Cricket at Lilac Hill 24-29 October.
We have some overseas cricketers as well as
Australian cricket lovers coming to play.
Assistance from Rotary clubs will be eagerly sought—
players and work­ers.
Any successful cricket carnival requires willing hands to provide food
and drink and conviviality!
You don‟t need to be a cricket tragic to be involved.

Rotary Club of Kalgoorlie

New Member Anne Skinner,

Editor, Kalgoorlie Miner
Anne was inducted into the Rotary Club of Kalgoorlie in May.

--

A plastic bag of the little hats...some with mittens and/or booties,
was given to Jim Lavery, a past Kalgoorlie Rotary Club member,

who is now working in PNG and he took it on his return to PNG

and posted it to the Madang Rotary Club from within PNG,

which is how we overcame the cost of freight

and possible Customs charges.

The items were taken to and used at the Modilon Hospital in Madang..

..already the supply we sent has been exhausted.
We were aware from our links with the Rotary Club of Madang

of how much they needed support for their hospital maternity ward,

however we could have easily sent the hats to any of dozens

of hospitals & clinics in Papua New Guinea,

all of whom are in need of such resources.
We appeal to any-one who is interested in knitting

or who can donate wool and knitting needles,

to please contact us as

the Rotary Club of Kalgoorlie would like to continue this project.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

SMILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The new mining Super tax and Royalties

are already having an impact on the mining industry
-----

A man walks into a dentist's office and says:

"I think I'm a moth."
The dentist replies:

"You shouldn't be here.

You should be seeing a psychiatrist."
The man replies:

"I am seeing a psychiatrist."
The dentist says:

"Well then, what are you doing here?"
The man says:

"Your light was on."
