President
Philip's
Message
As you will all be aware, I spent this weekend at Echuca for PETS
(Presidents Elect Training Seminar), and as always, I have returned
inspired and impressed by the enthusiasm and talent of our
District’s incoming Club Presidents. Their commitment and focus will
ensure a good Rotary year ahead in our District with some exciting
projects across the Avenues of Service....

 DG Colin Muir's Weekly Message
in
Networker
(Issue 38, 12 April 2010)
April
is
Rotary Magazine Month
"Unsung Heroes"
How often do we watch TV and see wonderful
humanitarian projects in action, and then wonder to ourselves
about how they started? “Gee! - I wonder who thought of that?”
And sometimes I see a program and think: “Isn’t
Rotary involved in that?” Like the time I saw children having
plastic surgery and asked myself: “Isn’t that an Interplast
Project?” I watched to the end, but no mention of Rotary. Often
there is little credit given to Rotary’s involvement. ...
