Packed House
It was great to see a full room last week for our visiting speaker. Here’s looking forward to a great year as we get into it.
Car Trial – March 15th.
The Fellowship Committee is running a Sunday car trial for members, families and friends.
The route will be easy but not the questions! Meet at the Papanui Club for a 1:00 pm start.
The destination for afternoon tea is Deborah's of Ambrosia Catering at Doyleston. $20 per head will cover a great afternoon tea and a talk on the history of this fabulous property (for those that haven't been before).
Numbers required at our meeting or by contacting to Rob Nicholl.
Proposed Amalgamation
Tony recently emailed all members out details of the Proposal to Seek Rotary International (RI) Approval to form a new district.
Please ensure you read the materials attached to this email as our Club will be discussing this issue shortly and we want you to be fully informed of the background and facts as we decide how we will go forward on this.
Speaker System Training with Gary
I am running 3 sessions this Thursday evening (20 February) on setting up the microphone stand and microphone for guest speakers at the following times:
- 5:00 pm
- 5:15 pm
- After the meeting (say 7:30 pm-ish)
You will learn how to setup a microphone stand so that it is in perfect position for a speaker while avoiding the limitations of the system we use. This will make you able to re-position the said microphone if it is needed to change during the meeting due to speaker height requirements.
It will be very informal but we are off to a good start with more volunteers than I have seen for a long time. If you didn't put your name down you can join in anyway.
