Coolamon Rotary News Bulletin #16

OCTOBER IS VOCATIONAL SERVICES  MONTH

The Concept of Vocational Service:

The Object of Rotary is a philosophical statement of Rotary’s purpose and the responsibilities of Rotarians. The concept of vocational service is rooted in the Second Object, which calls on Rotarians to “encourage and foster”:

• High ethical standards in business and professions
• The recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations
• The dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society
As a Rotarian, how can you put these ideals into action? Consider these suggestions:
• Talk about your vocation in your club, and take time to learn about fellow members’
vocations.
• Use your professional skills to serve a community.
• Practice your profession with integrity, and inspire others to behave ethically through
your own words and actions.
• Help a young person achieve his or her career aspirations.
• Guide and encourage others in their professional development.

If you do any of these things, you are performing vocational service. And if vocational service  motivates and energizes you, then you’re in the right place, because vocational service is the very essence of Rotary. It is what sets Rotary apart from other service organizations.

MEETING MONDAY OCTOBER 27th. 2014

President Garth Perkin and Bruce Spinks

We had a workshop on fund raising tonight with 13 members and one guest in Bruce Spinks from Wollundry Grove Olives and a member of the Rotary Club of Wollundry.

PE Wayne Lewis conducted the workshop with help from John Glassford.  We discussed many aspects of fund raising and established several causes that we have supported in the past and ones that we will look at supporting in the future.

The members provided some excellent ideas and ways to raise funds for our causes in the future.  A minute will be prepared and sent to all of our members.  We looked at our local community needs, National and International causes.

Causes included:

Education programmes in all three categories

Australian Rotary Health Fund and Mental Health in particular.

Organ Donation

Disaster Aid

Legacy Australia and the Mount Kenya Climb.

The Shire Community Fund

The Bike Track for Coolamon

There were too many fund raising ideas to list here and an interesting one discussed was the Internet and Crowd Funding.

All in all a very productive night and thanks go to Wayne Lewis for organising the night.  Good fellowship followed which included a serious fine for Grahame Miles below:

The visit to Oloimugi gets more and more intriguing here is a snippet from their leader Armicus on what to expect:

Walk around the village seeing the best that we offer . Talk of our learning centre. bee-hive zone,  shields and artifacts’ room among others. Do yourself some favor by grabbing  nice bead-work from our  loaded craft shop. The purchase goes all the way to develop this eco-tourism bakery.  And yes..buy and get an extra gift..yay!  You are still to see many things..

Relax!!!!!you are at home “OLOIMUGI MAASAI VILLAGE”..Next is a series of activities that you are going to plunge in..Fascinating..learn about how Maasai used to hunt for food in times of drought and famine when their livestock was unproductive. Here, you see how a donkey was masked skillfully to look like an oryx.  This is what we could call “stalking”   This way, a person could go to a “nose-mouth’  distance near the target hunt. You see the whole activity practically..Interesting. Isnt’t it?  NB-No kill is practiced.

OCTOBER IS VOCATIONAL SERVICES  MONTH

A Rotary team boards the Africa Mercy, a 500-foot floating hospital, to provide a stream of care and compassion to ports of call.

This Rotary Foundation Vocational Training Team is the first to serve under Rotary’s partnership with the nonprofit Mercy Ships. Rotary District 7690 in North Carolina, USA, sponsored the team with a packaged grant, part of the new Rotary grant model that launched worldwide 1 July. The team’s five members will train Guinean health professionals at the two national hospitals.

The Africa Mercy, a 500-foot oceangoing hospital ship, is docked in Conakry for a 10-month medical mission. The Mercy Ships staff and visiting experts, such as this team, will tackle a range of tasks, including setting up medical and dental clinics, conducting health screenings, performing surgeries on board, and conducting health care outreach throughout the country. The ship also will serve as a steel-hulled security blanket.

St Mary’s’ Ben Waters in the Australian Trucking Association Safety Truck during the Rotary Youth Driver Awareness Program at the Maryborough Showgrounds.

SIXTEEN-year-old Rachael Lewis had an eye-opening experience at the Rotary Youth Driver Awareness Program held at the Maryborough showgrounds.

The student, who is on her learner’s permit, attended the last of the three-day program on Thursday and gained something that no driving instructor could teach.

“We went inside a truck to observe the blind spots on the rear view mirrors and I now know why we have to keep a safe distance from trucks because it’s not easy for them to spot small cars,” she said.

The program by members of Rotary Club gave Year 11 students practical workshops to change the way they think about road safety.

ON THE LIGHTER SIDE

The Mentalist

Tony and Sharon were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Tony suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Sharon promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom, pulled Tony out and brought him to his room.

When the hospital director became aware of Sharon’s heroic act, she immediately ordered that Sharon be discharged from the hospital because she now considered Sharon to be mentally stable. She went to Sharon and said, “I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that you’re being discharged because you responded so rationally to a crisis.

By jumping in the pool to save the life of another patient, you displayed sound mindedness. The bad news is that Tony, the patient you saved, hung himself in his bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he’s dead.” Sharon replied, “He didn’t hang himself. I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?”

ROTARY INFORMATION

When asked to describe his future, a refugee child from Iraq draws a picture of himself as a doctor. Another child uses colorful paints to depict happy memories of his former life in Iraq. Both children are among the 200,000 displaced Iraqis who now live in Jordan, a country that has become a safe haven for those fleeing oppression and war in neighboring Palestine, Syria, and Iraq.

Alexandra Dawley, a former volunteer with the Collateral Repair Project in Jordan, emphasizes how something as simple as an art project can help young refugees adjust to their new lives in a foreign country. With the support of Rotary clubs across Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, and the help of teenage refugee volunteers in Jordan, Dawley implemented a children’s’ art program to give refugee children a creative outlet for their dreams and ambitions.

VERY SAD NEWS

NAIROBI (Reuters) – A rare northern white rhino has died in Kenya, a wildlife conservancy said on Saturday, leaving just six of the animals left alive and bringing the famed African species one step closer to extinction.

While there are thousands of southern white rhinos still roaming the plains of sub-Saharan Africa, decades of rampant poaching have drastically cut northern white rhino numbers.

Suni, a 34-year-old who was the first northern white rhino to be born in captivity, was found dead on Friday by rangers at the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, about 250 km (155 miles) north of Nairobi.

The conservancy said Suni was not poached, but the cause of his death was unclear.

ROTARY’S WOMEN OF ACTION

By Julia D. Phelps, RI director

As I sat in the audience at the White House on 7 October, listening to 10 amazing Rotary women tell the stories of their volunteer efforts, two quotes kept running through my mind. First, “Be the change you wish to be in the world” (Mahatma Gandhi) and second, “Never underestimate the power of a small group of people to change the world. In fact, it is the only way it ever has” (Margaret Mead).

In fact, these 10 women took these two quotes, put them together and created projects, foundations, and fundraising efforts that changed their world and the world of others. It struck me that all of their efforts started with one woman who saw a need, a problem, and then went about addressing the situation. They didn’t get permission, they didn’t write a business plan; they just got busy. They were brave and courageous as they stepped out to make a difference. And as their idea grew into reality, they realized that they couldn’t do it alone. That’s where their Rotary club members, their networks, and our Rotary Foundation, came into play.
