Mark confirmed earlier this year that his Presidential project was to do some maintenance work on the Te Anau Yacht Club Wharf.  He has been working with Mitre 10 to secure materials and because we met criteria, 

 

We have had confirmation that our application for a grant was successful which means we will be allocated $1125 - half of the cost of the project - which is the maximum 50% of a project the District Grant will allocate.

Mark and the Services Projects team are making plans for this work as soon as the weather allows.

 

Ken Adam

It is with sadness that we note the passing of Ken Adam.

Ken was a long standing member of our club, served his time as President and was a Paul Harris recipient.

A memorial service to celebrate Ken's life will be held in Te Anau at a later date.

 

 

It is time for us to nominate candidates for the next RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) which will be held in Queenstown 6-11 February 2022. 

 

There is a lot involved in the selection process so we need to get on with this so what we need is your input.

 

IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE AGED 18-25 WHO WOULD BENEFIT FROM THIS LEADERSHIP COURSE - Please contact Lynley Jones, our Youth Director, at lynleyphil@gmail.com or phone 027 848 9524.

 

We normally sponsor at least one candidate but if we have a couple of very good applications, we will review our funding accordingly and see if we can make 2 work.

 

This is such a great course for young leaders, and we know we have some good potential here in Te Anau so put your thinking caps on, discuss this with any potential candidates and contact Lynley.

                         

Do you know where the money raised at Rotary ends up? Do you know what goes in behind the scenes? Craig is looking for people to give back to Rotary by giving one of our Director roles a go or if approached by Craig please consider giving something a go. This is a great way to find the answer to these questions and others. If interested please contact Craig McMurtrie and make a difference. A reminder that the Rotary Club of Fiordland is a service club. The club helps us as Rotarians as we provide service. Rotary helps us with organisation, personal development and public speaking to name a few.

If anyone has a service project they think may suit Rotary could they please get in contact Craig McMurtrie 021 249 7775. It will be great to hear some ideas!

This note is being sent to all members as a reminder of their obligations when unable to attend a meeting.

 

 

PLEASE NOTE: As the roster has been drawn up so as everybody gets an equal share, if you arrange a substitute, try and swap with another person with the same duty perhaps the following week.

PLEASE NOTE: It is important that you let President Craig know who that substitute is.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are unable to attend to your Duty please arrange a substitute, many don't check the roster and miss their obligation and this puts pressure on other members and creates confusion. . 

 

Your assistance to this simple process will assist us and The Club to operate effectively.
