Meeting Minutes
After a bit of confusion about the assistance we were providing to the RC of Oberon at the Maitland BBQ, Anthony J reported that the matter had been settled. Pres Pete had circulated an email earlier in the week about how RC Oberon had still not heard form us about the assistance we’d be giving them. Anthony J was quick to respond to RC Oberon with the names recorded from our meeting last week about who’d be assisting and when.
Anthony also read us some correspondence from the Mitchell Conservatorium of Music. The annual scholarship we donate has been awarded to Olivia Fischer. She’s a young vocalist who would otherwise be unable to afford to continue her training without our assistance.
David W reports that the final stage we need to have all of our ducks in a row for the duck race is city council approval. David also circulated the letter explaining the duck race to schools, who can use the duck race to fund raise for their P&C. We’re still in need of some prizes to be donated.
Rob B has suggested that we have a working meeting on November 30 at MacKillop College to put up the shade house.
Chris B announced that the gala dinner has been cancelled.
Pete C reported on attending the opening of the new Grange building on CSU campus. It was very well attended by a range of Rotary clubs (RC Bathurst East as well as from Orange), city officials (like the mayor) and university big-wigs (like the Vice-chancellor). Pete asked me earlier in the week if I thought it would be worth going to and I suggested to him that it probably wouldn’t be. Pete told me he had a good feeling about it and would probably go. It turns out Pete was right and it was quite a wiz-bag affair.
David W then presented Melinda, an All Saints prefect, as the Youth Award Winner.
Jacquin then presented the Inner Wheel Trophy to our club. PP Adam accepted the award (dressed in his Sunday finest) and Jacquin presented it because they were both the respective presidents of the clubs last year when the trophy was won. We won the trophy by beating the other two clubs in Bathurst in billiards and 10-pin bowling. The awarding of the trophy began in 1979 to promote fellowship between the Bathurst clubs. There was the suggestion that the trophy be contested again with a twilight bowls event in January 2011.
Meeting for October 26
This week we’ll be having our AGM. This is the event where we discuss the club direction for 2011 and vote the board for 2011-12 so everybody should make a special effort to attend.
