Presidents Report A wonderful fellowship night was held last
Thursday night at La Cucina Restaurant in the North Con-course. As
the first fellowship for the year it set a high benchmark. Priests
and gangsters, nonnas and gondoliers, even the Pope was there. It
was indeed a religious night as the Pope and the Nun took out the
costume prizes, Kerrie took out the spot prize, and Ken took out a
special prize for the pizzahat/face. Richard organized a great
night ably assisted by Rewa, Jude and Phil. Thanks to all. It was
great to see our potential members Vivien and partner Mark, Tim and
Lois came to enjoy the night and to get to know everyone better.
The staff at La Cuci-na were very hospitable, and their generosity
with the food provided, and their attitude showed the re-spect that
Rotary is held in locally. It was again a busy Rotary week as
Megan, Mal-colm and I again this week interviewed a prospec-tive
member and talked about the benefits and obli-gations of Rotary.
Were doing so again next week. I have to thank Megan for the
enthusiasm and dili-gence with which she is pursuing membership and
marketing, she is making sure that potential mem-bers feel welcome
but also understand what it all means, and what is needed on both
sides. This week also we had a special Board meeting on Tuesday
night the 28th July, at the request of the special subcommittee of
International to discuss the work the subcommittee had done on a
Grant appli-cation for Sabu. David Langworthy, John Manks, Jim
OBrien and Ken Mirams took on this task, and I would especially
like to record my thanks to them. In summary, it was agreed by the
Board. That Rotary Club of Beaumaris will currently sup-port the
$13,000 budget allocation to be our com-mitment to the Solar Global
Grant proposal, and agree to allow members of the club to start to
se-cure support from other Rotary Clubs, District 9800, Kupang
District and other contributors, of the bal-ance, prior to a formal
review of the project/

application by the Board in the September/October time frame. It
will be made clear to any of the Clubs ap-proached that if any of
the preconditions are not met, e.g. funding not secured from other
clubs, essential other criteria not met then the project could not
proceed. It was also made clear that there will be no fur-ther
monetary allocation by the RCOB. The $13,000 is the upper limit of
any contribution for us. If the costings come in as any more than
this then the project will be scaled back. It was also agreed that
there will be a Formal Meeting of the board with both John Beaty
and Graham Richardson (by invitation) present so that all
requirements and expectations could be thoroughly canvassed and all
queries satisfied prior to any authorisation for the Grant to be
submitted. There will be a further discussion of the project, both
by the board and the membership follow-ing John Beatys return from
overseas. John is the Director of the International Committee. For
our local work Chris DArcy and Lynda Doutch had a meeting with
Fairway Hostel in Bluff Road, to see if we can undertake a project
relating to older residents with them and the in-dications are
looking very promising. I would like us to start our international
loose change project next week, if you have any spare international
coins in a drawer at home, empty them out and bring them along next
week. We will be trying to fill up Jam jars (not James jars, as
James has already contributed international coins from the Farmers
Market change). Next Saturday is the Farmers Market, and even
although Heather has had to go to the South of
France, I am sure that we will all cope and en-
joy ourselves. Looking forward to seeing you
all next Thursday for Lyndas new member talk.
