PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS INVITATION AS SOON AS YOU RECEIVE IT.

Speaker:   Alexandra (Alex) Rose

Alex spoke at the recent District conference and has been selected as a Rotary Peace Scholar.  She was a stunning speaker and is well qualified and confident and will be an excellent representative for our District.

Do not miss her talk about the honour.  It is a no brainer to attend.

The Rotary Clubs of Campbelltown and Unley will be working together to provide a sausage sizzle BBQ for children from Special Schools at the Variety Club Day at the Zoo.  The clubs sponsor the BBQ and provide supporting staff.

The key requirement will be for cooks, servers and runners for the event.  Each club will be required to provide around 15 members, partners and friends who can help.

Please advise soonest if you can be at the Zoo between the hours shown.

This is a fun day and a chance to provide hands on and financial support.  Costs will be borne by the two clubs.  The only cost to volunteers may be parking, although some free parking may be available.

David Fenton from Campbelltown will be putting the rosters together and volunteers will be advised of locations and roles later.

PLEASE SIGN UP/DECLINE ASAP.

Tonight, we welcome our new group the “Youngs Friends of Unley Rotary”.  What would Rotary or life be without an acronym “YFUR”.

These are a group established by Rhonda and the New Generations team.  They have mostly attended Rotary youth programmes and form part of the club’s alumni.  I am sure this will be  an entertaining evening as they introduce themselves and talk about their plans.

Join us to make them welcome and who knows this may be the Genesis of a group of younger people who may ultimately join Rotary and bring it into new generation thinking.

Speaker:  DR David Schultz AM

Actively involved in wildlife conservation and research, David Schultz has been published in both national and international journals and has led conservation programs that have seen the reintroduction of many native animals including Yellow-footed Rock Wallabies, Brush-tailed Rock Wallabies, Mainland Tamar wallabies, Black-flanked Rock Wallabies, Woma pythons and Western quoll.

One of David’s most significant contributions to wildlife conservation and research has been spearheading the active collaboration between veterinarians and biologists to work together in wildlife health and conservation programs.

Annually the club works with the Unley Road Association to present awards for Small Business, Pride of Workmanship and Age Friendly.

This is a member only meeting and there is no cost.

Snacks and drinks will be available at no cost.  However, this does not replace dinner.
