Message
We have a very busy

“Breakfast with the Pres”. If you are interested, it will be this
Thursday at 7 am for 7.15 am start at the Observatory Cafe,
Botanical Gardens. We seem to get a lot done at these breakfasts in
resourcing projects and this coming week we will talk about work in
progress on the website, the establishment of the Rotaract Club of
Melbourne, the upcoming Community Service Excellence Awards, the
business breakfasts, and other initiatives in Community and
International Service. Your input would be valued! ...
