Message from our President - Tim's Tattles
Last Wednesday's meeting was hosted by the Cordon Bley apprentices . There was some exotic food including delicious oysters natural and prawns amongst many other sensational gourmet food.
We were served by students from the local schools who practiced their hospitality techniques on us. It all went well.
To lighten the evening Helen and Ian entertained us with some games. It was all good fun.
It was good to see that we had 5 guests for the evening that added to the ambience of the evening.
There is a Board meeting at my place at 7.30 Monday.,
I have spoken to Geoff Gartley about obtaining promoting us in the local Glen Eira news for the market and our club .
Yours in Rotary ‘The Magic of Rotary’
President Tim Lynch

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 far superior.
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.
Thank you for being a subscriber to our Weekly Club Bulletin. I try to have it published each week by Tuesday morning.
If you would like to have something included please contact me at editor@rotarybmc.org.au and attach, as separate files, the words and any images (jpg files are fine, minimum width 820 pixels). Please DO NOT send information as pdf files.
