Greetings to all,
There is an age-old maxim of “A change is as good as a holiday”. Quite relevant for us
this week; whilst two parties from our club were away working on projects in Timor and
Indonesia, a number of us remaining members and partners enjoyed a great night of
fellowship on Monday evening at the Steel Tree Restaurant in Baldivis. As usual the
Steel Tree top quality cuisine, with the bonus of 50% discount for the second main meal
when ordering in pairs. It was especially pleasing to have Barry Winmar’s entire family
join us for the evening. With families being so busy these days with their multitude of
weekly activities, bringing the whole family together for a Monday night gathering was
most impressive!
Our overseas workers appear to have fully immersed themselves in their respective
projects, judging by the photos that have appeared on social media. The local residents
all appear to be very welcoming and thankful to the gentlemen. Shall look forward to
hearing further details when they have returned.
A special congratulations is due to our friend Wayne Milnes from the Rotary Club of
Rockingham. It has just been announced by DG Linda McLerie that Wayne will be the
2019 – 2020 District Governor for Rotary District 9465. Over the years Wayne has held
a number of significant positions, including Club President, District Secretary, and
Assistant Governor. No doubt he will do a wonderful job as District Governor. We
wish Wayne and Suzanne all the very best for their preparations over the next two years.

President’s Report
1. Thank you to James, Edd & Bob T and all the helpers for another successful Bunnings sausage
sizzle; it is a credit to all concerned.
2. I also believe the Wellard Markets went off well on Sunday, and again thanks to Chris, John and
all the volunteers that helped out on the day.
3. Thanks to James we had another great article in the Kwinana Courier; if anyone needs a copy
see Bob Cooper – he may lend you one out the 500 he has!
4. I also believe the District training (C.O.T.S) was informative, and thank you to all that attended.
5. Foundation Grants Seminar and C.O.T.S: myself and Bob Cooper will attend the sessions in
Esperance on May 28th
after our return from Timor-Leste (yes, we are still speaking to each
other).
6. Directors and Service Managers: your budget for the 2017 – 2018 Rotary year is now due.
7. District Grants are now open for applications and your Board has the forms if you wish to apply.
International
The International Committee is carrying out the following:
Bob Cooper and myself are in Timor-Leste from the 7th May to the 20
th May, and all is going well for
the two grumpy old men.
Two projects have now been completed :
Running tap water into the sisters’ house at Tutuala, and an extra 570,000litres of water (it’s a big
tank!) including an alternative water supply to the Don Bosco Ag School at Fuiloro.
I will be the guest speaker at
