Presidents Report

At our last meeting PE Bob McArthur and his team gave apresentation for the upcoming Rotary year, 2013/2014. Iwasn’t able to attend this meeting, however I heard from thosethat did attend that it was a very professional and compre-hensive presentation. Bob’s wife “soon to be first lady” Suealso came along for the meeting.

Bob’s focus for the year is membership, something that both heand Membership director Trish Smyth will be working hard onin the year ahead. Membership is one of the areas of focusfor Rotary International, along with Future Vision and Eradica-tion of Polio.

I know everyone is very much looking forward to Bob’ year.

Tony McKenna and I attended the District Changeover night on15th June, where DG Brian Martin “handed over the baton” toincoming DG for 2013/2014, Merv Ericson.

The district now has a different system for awarding clubs,where they are now recognised in the areas of Club Building,Club Projects and Club PR/Communications. At the districtchangeover many clubs received recognition awards, whichprovided an excellent insight into the work done by clubs inour district in 2012-13. In line with the International theme,many awards were made for club “peace” projects.

For the upcoming 2013/2014 year, PDG David Alexanderwill take over responsibility for a new District 9810 learningregime, which I understand will continue to come under the Ro-tary Leadership Institute. This provides opportunities for allmembers to receive training from experienced Rotary trainersand leaders, to equip them to take on the many roles offeredby Rotary.

Next meeting will be at VGC on 20th June, where we willhave as our guest speaker Michael Gallus from Footys-4-all.Come along and find out what it is all about!

Stay safe everyone and have a wonderful week.

President John

Bunnings Sausage Sizzle; 17 June

A band of hardy soles braved the cold, wind and rain todo our first Monday sausage sizzle at Bunnings Mentone.While being very cautious about what result we wouldget on a weekday and in such inclement weather the re-sult; a net $566.05 made it all worthwhile.

Also by maintaining our relationship with Bunnings itshould, hopefully, lead to favourable consideration formore lucrative days down the track. Well done to allwho did their bit on the day.

Dream Trip: Free BASE the Eiger, Switzerland

Dean PotterRock Climber/BASE Jumper

The 13,025-foot Eiger, an iconic limestone buttress jutting out fromthe ridgeline, is highly visible even among taller peaks in Switzer-

land’s western Alps. Its dramatic north face towers nearly 6,000feet above the mountain pass below and is known in mountaineer-ing as one of the six great north faces of the Alps for its difficultyand height. In 2008, climber Dean Potter selected it for the firstever free BASE (parachute-protected free solo) climb.

“Since childhood, I had always been a free soloist, a climber with-out ropes or any protection, where falling meant splattering uponthe ground,” Potter says. “Free BASE was completely foreign tome and it broke every rule I trusted to change falling on a climbfrom dying to flying.”

He ascended a route known as the Deep Blue Sea with only a five-pound BASE parachute strapped to his back for protection.
