Meeting of Monday 29th July 2024

President Adrian Lindner welcomed 20 participants to the meeting tonight at the Ganmain Sports Club. We had Wendy Lindner, Sharon Miles, Susan Glassford, Ruth Morgan, Jan Nulty, Dianne Suidgeest and Lorraine Hamilton as our guests tonight. Myffy was an apology at the last minute.

We had a pleasant meal and a lot of fellowship and relaxation. Ganmain Sports Club opened up especially for our social meeting tonight and we very much appreciate them doing that. Thanks go to Grahame Miles for organising the evening.

We did discuss a small amount of business including a reminder that PP Deidre Lampe from Wagga Wagga Sunrise is our guest speaker next Monday night talking on domestic violence.

Reminders on the Ganmain Show and that the next Board meeting will be on Monday 12th August.

The August edition of the Coolamon Community Chronicle is now being printed by John Bond and the August edition has been uploaded to the CRC website and the CCC Facebook page. Thank you Sharon Miles and the editorial team for another excellent Chronicle.

John Bond spoke briefly on the $1,000 donation to the Coolamon Central School.

It was an enjoyable evening.

One of the highlights will be DG Michael Lapina, a treat indeed. Yes Michael the current D9800 District Governor, and I heard him sing at the Zone 8 Conference in Canberra. Michael and Heather McInally also had the Singapore Convention delegates give them a 6 minute standing ovation following their duet. As you know Heather is the wife of Past RI President Gordon McInally.

JUST FOR LAUGHS

ROTARY NEWS

SYNGENTA FIELD DAY

Wednesday 31st July – The Syngenta Seedcare Institute field days at the CSU farm in Wagga.

Here is a report and photos from yesterday’s Syngenta catering job at CSU.

Using the Rotary van (thanks Henk for the upgrades) we had Daryl, Ted, Dick, Albert, Garth and Albert help with moving the van then serving steak burgers to around 35 Syngenta agronomists from around Australia at the CSU farm. A lovely day and all went well. Syngenta to pay us for cooking and serving.

Thanks for the photos Adrian.
