Presidents Report 17th March 2024
 
Hello Members and Friends,
 
This week’s correspondence comes to you from the Blue Lake Caravan Park in Mt Gambier. It is Sunday afternoon following the District 9780 Conference, hosted by the Lakes Rotary Club Mt Gambier.
 
22 Members, Partners and Friends attended the Conference under the Torquay Banner and enjoyed a highly entertaining and information packed event at the Wulanda Community Complex in Mt Gambier.
 
Please look out for the photos is the Bulletin of what you missed out on by not being able to attend. Photos paint a thousand words as they say. Attending members will fill in the gaps and add detail at this Monday night’s meeting.
Top of our Agenda was to officially launch the DGE Lesley’s 2025 District Conference here in Torquay. Thankyou to all who laboured long and hard learning and rehearsing the words to the supporting songs and promoting the finer details of next year’s event.
