Welcome to 2009

Hi everyone and welcome to 2009!

The Board has met for the first time in this second half of the Rotary year, we are very excited about some proposed changes to the running of the club. All will be revealed at tomorrow night's Aussie Day BBQ meeting!

We're meeting at 7pm at Suz's house (please send an email to rotaractswb@hotmail.com or contact a club member via email/Facebook/mobile if you don't have the address) to plan the next six months and perhaps play a few board games.

Sharyn has done a fantastic job of putting up date claimers on the right hand side of the blog. These show some of the different events and speakers that are upcoming, please have a look and book these into your diary now. Our first guest speaker will be from "Over the Moon" - you might remember that we used our Sargeant's Fines to buy and donate Christmas presents for people staying at their women's refuge shelter.

Other speakers we're hoping will visit us include The Greyhound Adoption Program and Anna Keenan from the Australian Youth Climate Coalition (Anna has previously spoken to us about climate change), . We're also hoping to have a few "vocational tours" including to the XXXX Brewery, to a fire station and to a coal mine!

See you tomorrow night! XD
