President
Philip's
Message
We have just
finished the MS bike ride. Mandy Pearson, Steven Aquilina, Dean
Fakira, Troy Gay and I all finished unscathed. It was a lot of fun
and I’m sure we will all be riding again in next year’s event, but
we would like to see more of our fellow Rotarians join us. Our team
raised over $2,600 for MS - a very good result in just a few weeks
fundraising. Thank you to all who supported us with sponsorship.
Well done Troy for organising us. I can see more fun bike rides on
the Southbank calendar. ...

Last Week's
Meeting
The theme of the meeting
was Friends of Rotary with a supporting cast from RYLA. The room
was full of people, the bulk of whom were not Southbank Rotarians.
Not sure what this means, but President Philip seemed pleased. ...

 DG Colin Muir's Weekly Message
in
Networker
(Issue 30, 15 February 2010)
February
is
World Understanding Month
"Global Networking Groups"
When I was researching this week’s DG Message I
spent quite some time trying to find a practical way for Rotarians
to become actively involved in groups, programs, projects and
activities that would improve World Understanding in some way.
The program or activity did not need to be a major
project that required a huge personal financial commitment or
physical effort but one that would make a difference to someone,
somewhere in the world – put simply a program to increase WORLD
UNDERSTANDING. ...
