The Secretary saved a member who couldn’t remember the tune to which the Rotary Grace is sung.

A Toast to The Queen, Australia and Rotary was given by the Treasurer.

Dinner came out quickly so we ate that before the Secretary provided an in-depth recitation of the weeks communications both inwards and out, all of which was accepted by the members.

Business arising from that correspondence was the motion to accept the offer by the Temora Christian Leaders to assist as usual at the Carols in the Park on December the 11th. This was seconded by the Secretary and carried.

Little else of interest was forthcoming apart from the Service Director reminding individuals of the Spring Garden Raffle duties and Temora Show Day Gate duties.

Guest speaker tonight was Bruce Robinson Patriarch, of a large family run farm with his three son’s and their wives who gave the assembled members an insight to farming of this style.

The meeting wrapped up around 8:20 PM with the singing of the National Anthem.

It is with much sadness I have to advise that after a short time within our club and even a shorter illness that Cheryl has passed away.

Having returned to Temora after devoting a lifetime to Nursing and Community Health, Cheryl displayed continued strong community spirit volunteering front and centre for any stall the club placed on Hoskins Street in all sorts of weather.

21st of March 2016 the Rotary Club of Temora held a Dinner event at the Museum with special guest speakers of Mr and Mrs Aviation Kenny and Lisa Love providing insight to the three successful WarBirds DownUnder held 2011, 2013 and 2015. The logistics and financial returns to the district were amazing. The Rotary Club of Coolamon also travelled to enjoy the fellowship as did many guests of members. Also on show prior to the Rotary District Conference in April were the quilts donated by Wives, Friends and the Public to be sold at the conference to assist the District Governor’s Wife, Marilyn Roberts’ appeal for Maternal Health in Africa.

Please enjoy the sample of photographs from the evening.
