Members’ Matters

Julia Gooden told us that

“we should not wait for a near-death in the

family to remind us that we are the gift to each

other in our families”.

Thought for the Day

If we lived in Grahamstown, I may suggest a

winter solstice swim in their dam - as they do -

in order to collect warm goodies for those

who are cold.

However, being a kind type of person, and

taking our ‘collective wisdom’ into account,

I am not going to ask you to

swim in freezing water!

What I would like to ask, specially now with

Mandela Day coming up on the 18th July,

is for everyone to go through their cupboards,

and bring a few articles of warm clothing to

Rotary lunch over the next two weeks.

Hospice badly needs warm goodies to give to

the families of people in their care.

If possible I would like us to donate at least

67 articles of warmth to Hospice. Please help!

Jill v d Marwitz will be talking on Kingfisher FM

tomorrow, the 2nd July.

Jean Durant will go on Kingfisher FM next Thursday,

the 2nd July,

Rotary Attendance during May was 55.3%

Rotary attendance during June was 63.8%

Thank you so much to Bertie Kommel, Nancy Nhliziyo,

Hlubi Hewitt-Coleman, Thandi Ndzombane, S’bo Tsiu,

and Pamela Sipamla for their donations towards the ‘lucky

dip draws’ at the Induction function.

Josef Ritter will be in Germany from July till October, and

Andrew Binning and his family are in Europe for 3 weeks.

We will miss you!

CONGRATULATIONS to Phil Gutsche on the 75th year

of Coca Cola’s existence in the market!

Please remember to bring the N’ali Bali to lunch on

Thursdays. Sally Potgieter and her teachers make good use

of these inserts in the Herald most Thursday mornings.

Our brand new District Governor, Tom McGee, will be visiting our club on the 15th July.

Have you ever heard an

Afrikaans speaking Scotsman? Be there!

As this is a Wednesday, our lunch that week

will be on the 15th, NOT Thursday 16th.
