From President Anne
A big week for RORP - our Rotary Overseas Relocated Playgrounds - with many thanks to Wayne Jenkins for his tremendous leadership with this.
Thank you to Ray Gardiner from True Blue Nursery for his support with the forklift and also Greg Buchanan.
This week we are meeting at the Mount Martha CFA at 6 pm which will include a BBQ dinner. Please remember to BYO drinks and water.
A reminder that our Club Board Meeting will also be held at 4.30PM in the CFA Meeting Room.
I am really looking forward to the guided tour of their upgraded facilities.
Next weekend is the big Easter Sunday BBQ at Bunnings which is always a popular day for the shoppers.
Rotary Mount Martha this week
A fantastic effort, with 12 full sized playgrounds loaded in just two and a half hours.
The Bougainville Crew were so supportive as was Russell Poole with MJ heading up the ladies team. Particular thanks to our "loading boss", Sam!
This container will head off to Siem Reap in Cambodia in the coming weeks together with some additional parts from a previous playground.
Next up we have a number of playgrounds from Casey to be harvested in our next Rotary year.
Thank you to all involved. It is greatly appreciated.
Wayne Jenkins, RORP Project Coordinator (D9815)
