Presidents Report The highlight of last Thursday was the induction of our newest club member Roy Downes. I am delighted that Roy decided to join us, I am sure he will be a real asset to Beaumaris Rotary. Knowing a little of Roy’s background I am also looking forward to hearing his new member’s talk.
Unfortunately our scheduled speaker Bruce Corben had to withdraw at the last moment as he was admitted to hospital. We wish Bruce a speedy recovery and will try to have him back at a later date.
I think Thursday evening showed that we don’t always need a speaker to have a successful meeting. We have a club night on 14th September and once we have had a chance to digest the survey results, Lynda may look at including a few more “Just Us” evenings into the program.
The weather was kind to us for the Farmers Market on Satur-day. The early showers cleared in time for the set up and then stayed away for the rest of the day. I would anticipate a good overall result, the numbers through the gates certainly acceler-ated as the morning went on. I know the takings at the BBQ were in the $800 - $900 range.
Last Wednesday I attended our cluster (Beaumaris, Chelten-ham, Hampton and Sandringham) president’s meeting. The object is to share information about club projects, speakers and upcoming events. For example we will be inviting cluster club members to our music trivia night on 21st September and

some of us are going to Hampton’s meeting on 29th Au-gust. I am also planning to go to Sandringham’s meeting on 24th October to hear about Rotarians Against Slavery. Our District Governor Malcolm Chiverton and his wife Karen will be visiting us on November 30th a date for your diary. Hopefully, the VGC car park will be complet-ed by then!
The Cancer Council Daffodil Day (25th & 26th August) and Concourse Classic Car Show (10th September) are coming up soon at the Beaumaris Concourse. Mary Cunnington is managing our involvement in Daffodil Day and Tony Phillips has again offered to organise our par-ticipation in the car show. Please look out for the signup sheets and help where you can. These events are im-portant for the visibility of the club in our local community and are also good fun. Kerrie Geard is also working on the Concourse Christmas Event with the traders and is helping them apply for a Bayside Council Grant.
The Art of Kakadu exhibition is now at the facelifted Brighton Library. The month at Sandringham library pro-duced some additional sales, he have similar hopes for Brighton particularly given the great display space. Thanks to Robert and the team. I have asked both San-dringham and Hampton Rotary Clubs to include details in their newsletters.
We still need a volunteer to help look after our social me-dia posts and some additional volunteers for the audio visual role at our meetings. Many of the original AV peo-ple now have other roles and the duty keeps falling on the same few, so this is becoming critical. Thanks to Bridget Hage and David Horne for volunteering, we could still use a couple more. If you can help please contact David Lea or myself.
Our meeting on Thursday will be at Victoria Golf Club. It is a special Youth Services evening co-ordinated by Chris Martin, where we will have the opportunity to hear

Have good week, I look forward to seeing you on Thurs-day.

MITS Gala Dinner
Thursday 19 October
Please save the date! On our annual fundraising event – the MITS Gala Dinner – will be held at Carousel on Albert Park Lake. Join our students for a delicious banquet feast by food&desire and entertainment by Yirrmal Marika – a new genera-tion artist from Yirrkala in North East Arnhem Land. Yirrmal is the grandson of Dr Yunupingu, former lead singer of Yothu Yindi. He is an inspir-ing songwriter and guitarist who performs with feeling and depth well beyond his years. He also undertook schooling away from home, so has walked the path our students are travelling. He wowed the crowds at the Port Fairy Festival this year and we know he’ll do the same at the Gala Dinner. Please join us if you can.

LIONS IN LINES Torie Hilley didn't think she'd be able to see any-thing interesting through the tall grass while on a safari in Zambia. "Then this pride of lions came walking toward us," she says, "taking advantage of the road to travel on. They, too, seemed they were tired of the tall grass swat-ting at their faces!"
