Message from our President
As president elect I spoke about my objectives for the year.
I want to see a harmonious club where we all work together as a team to achieve more .
I have met with our public relations coordinator and our membership coordinator in an effort to combine the skills of these 2 people to bolster our membership. They have some great ideas already.
I expect for all of us to supply our Program group with possible speakers. Prospective members want to come to our meetings to listen to people who have a story to tell. Like Linda O'Brien who spoke to us about her historic links to Sth Melbourne. There are potential speakers everywhere.
When potential members come they will see a vigorous club who together achieve enormous things . You should be justifiably proud of your achievements.
Next week we meet at Onyx cafe at Reserve rd in Cheltenham.
Its a 7.00 AM start and they are ready for us .
I have a special thrill for you this week at Onyx, Darren Egar from Psychs on Bikes is going to speak to us about the things he does. Counselling the public who have been through traumatic experiences.
Yours in Rotary ‘The Magic of Rotary’
President Tim Lynch

Discussion on President's Goals for the Year - Pres Tim Lynch
Please forward any events you want promoted to the Editor.
Well, this event marked the end of my year as DG. I am grateful to President Ron and Marilyn along with Peter and Linda O'Brien and AG Helen Nodrum for their attendance and support. It was a great evening and one I was a little relieved to get through. A few photos follow and an album of photographs can be found here.
President Ron chaired today's club meeting in his last and official meeting as President. Larry performed invocation and the toast to Rotary and Australia. Apologies were received from Jo, Paul, Peter and Linda, Barry, Geoff Gl, Kevin, and Glenda.
Larry Green was our chairperson for today's club meeting at Cilantro. Paul Ferguson performed invocation and the toast to Rotary and Australia. Helen Parker, Charles Rener and Karin Soster joined the meeting via zoom.
Guests included Peter from the R.C of Beaumaris and Margaret, and our guest speakers Chris and Tania from the Moorabbin Proactive Policing Unit.
Plus we had a very important new member induction.........................
A number of members from our Club attended the special luncheon held at the Cape Schanck Resort on Sunday, June 2, 2024.
The event was attended by the RI International President Gordon McInally and his wife Heather, who had generously agreed to "call in" on their way home from the Singapore International Convention.
The invitation was originally extended, and accepted a year ago.
Along with DG Ian, club members who attended were: Club President Ron Brownlees and Marilyn, Linda and Peter O'Brien, Karin Soster and Gary, Jo Impey, Helken Nodrum and Margie Lucas. Unfortuantely, Helen Parker was unable to attend as she has returned from Singapore with Covid and was home in bed feeling very unwell.
Pictured above are our club members surrounding President Gordon.

Team members: Margy, Peter and Tim from BMC with Andrew and Anita from Moorabbin Other helpers and visitors: Charles Rener Sam Langridge Cars in queue: 1. Night parkers : 1 Pedestrian count 301 Market Report: It was a slow start with a cold weather forecast. The market was consolidated in size, a 10.30 shower scattered many stall holders however sun appeared after 11 and it was a reasonable weather finish.
Leader, Tim Moran
Note from the Editor re Images and Events
A point regarding the submission of images for the Bulletin and Website: Members are reminded that images have to meet a minimum size requirement, as has been specified for some time in the section at the bottom of this Bulletin. 820 pixels is the minimum size required with larger being better as this allows for cropping. The submission of images via MMS is NOT preferred as they are too small and of inferior quality. Email or Whatsapp is preferred.
Would any member like to take responsibility for the updating of the Club's Event Calendar? I have created a page of instructions here so it is very easy to take over.
Thank you, Ian Ballantine
I remind members that you are responsible for the information contained in the Club's database. This includes, birthdays, phone numbers, addresses etc etc. Even your own photo. You maintain this via this link.
Ian Ballantine
A reminder to members to keep checking the calendar of upcoming events for evening and perhaps, one day, daytime events.
