President’s Report
I thought our joint meeting with Hampton (and Sandringham) on Tuesday went well. Despite having to compete with Paul McCartney 18 members came along to hear a summary of the results of Bayside Council’s 2017 youth resilience survey from Niki Efstratiou, Youth Planning and Development Officer within the Community Services area of Bayside City Council. We were also joined by Peter and Andrew Wicking from Resilient Youth. Over dinner I spoke with Nicki about some of the Rota-ry Youth programs that are available, we need to follow up on this in the New Year. Thanks to everybody who donated a bag of Christmas treats for the Salvation Army appeal.
It was heartening to see so many Rotarians and partners at-tending the funeral services for Brian Gibbons, Lynda Doutch's dad on Monday and Kylie Phillips Tony and Jill Phillips' daugh-ter on Tuesday. It’s what we do, it’s who we are.
Yesterday’s Farmers Market was a belter. (If you don’t know what a belter is ask Roy Downes.) The gate receipt was a whisker under $2,000 and the BBQ just over $1,000. Thanks to everybody who helped out. The star of the day had to be the wine raffle. The bottles that we all donated raised over $1,800. The winner of the 40 bottle first prize, a lady name Gay, could not believe her luck, particularly as Heather D’Arcy had to work hard to get her to buy a ticket. Megan, well done, great idea, great outcome, thank you.
Please remember that the Art of Kakadu exhibition is now at the Beaumaris Library, where it will remain ‘till the end of De-cember. Tell your friends and go and have look. The more people who show an interest the easier it is for us to get per-mission from Council to do these sort of things. We are hoping that we will be able to get back into the Council Office Atrium in May and I know Robert would like to exhibit again at the Brighton Library. I am following up with folks at District 9810 about what we do the now $3,000+ we have raised for the Tra-choma 2020 project.
Thanks to the four people who have provided some feedback about In Gear following my comments over the last couple of weeks. We will be reviewing future direction at our next board meeting on Tuesday.
We have our Christmas Dinner on Thursday. Santa has prom-ised to take a break from his busy schedule and join us during

the evening. We are planning to start 2018 with a Nine and Dine on Wednesday 17th January at Woodlands Golf Club. Tony Phillips has sent out details, so if you plan to play, please get back to him.
We have 1 Beaumaris Rotary anniversary this week; con-gratulations to Kerrie Geard, 16th December 1999.
Enjoy your week, see you on Thursday.
On-to-Conference Update
Pricing for the conference is a little more complicated this year as, for the first time, various options are being of-fered. Check out the District 9810 Conference website for full details. (And while there, take the link on the Gala Dinner page to the original Jailhouse Rock sequence from the movie starring Elvis).
As a guide, for a single person attending the full confer-ence, having a single occupancy room (at the Schaller Studio) on the Friday and Saturday nights, attending the club dinner on the Friday night and the Gala Dinner on the Saturday night, will be approximately $670, (for a couple $1080). Breakfasts and evening drinks at the club dinner are not included but lunches on both Saturday and Sun-day are.
Those planning to play golf on the Thursday should budg-et another $50 pp (green fees and shared cart) plus ac-commodation ($130 per room) on the Thursday night.
Please note these are maximum prices as there are re-ductions available should you wish to attend only part of the conference.
Non-conference attendees are welcome to join us for golf on the Thursday. The proposed golf course is around two hours from Beaumaris. Why not stop for brunch at Kyneton on the way up and Woodend for dinner on the way back?

Nine and Dine
Wednesday, 17 January 2018
We will be returning in 2018 to a 9 holes of Golf and BBQ which this year is at Woodlands Golf Club. Martin Fother-gill has negotiated a great deal for all of us and the BBQ cost is $40 whilst the golf is free (however you must at-tend the BBQ to play the golf). The 9 holes will commence with a shotgun start at 4pm and the BBQ will get under-way at 6.30pm and the evening will finish no later than 9pm.

LUCKY STRIKE
Your Shot photog-rapher Lukas Neu-wirth was on his way to photograph Mont-Saint-Michel at sunset when he was caught in a downpour. After the rain stopped, he set up his tripod and captured this scene of lightning striking around the island. "It was amazing to witness this spec-tacular sight and mood!" he remem-bers.
