The Rotary Club of Brisbane is celebrating its 95th anniversary in a Rotary-unusual way with real burgers and virtual reality Ecstasy, Cannabis and Magic Mushrooms. Join is for the "trip" on the 28th of May at the Brisbane Queen Street Mall Stage. The official start will be at 12:00 noon and we hope the Lord Mayor Graham Quirk will be available to get the event going. No fundraising! Just fun! You can expect two main things happening:
1. Official handover to the Salvation Army of a disaster response trailer, funded with a $30,000 donation from the Rotary Club of Brisbane. The trailer will be cooking real burgers for the occasion.
2. Virtual reality awareness-raising on the risks associated with drink/drug-driving with a driving simulator in cooperation with CARRS-Q. We have facilitated a free license for QUT to use the European virtual reality software (valued at $47,000). We will offer the citizens of Brisbane to get behind the wheel of a virtual car and experience what it’s like to drive a car whilst drunk, on Ecstasy, high on Cannabis and tripping on Magic Mushrooms. By choosing their "high" and stepping behind the wheel they will experience simulated drug-induced experiences and precisely how their perception of reality and therefore driving competence is affected.

The Annual Burnett Cup City vs Country Matchplay event is on again. This year charity funds from the event are being donated to charities that work in the mental health field, specifically the Royal Flying Doctor Service Mental Health Unit and Australian Rotary Health, which supports an active research programme in mental health. Dan Williams sponsors the green fees and trophies each year, and asks that each city player make a donation of at least $50 to the charity collection. Tee off is by shotgun start at 12:30pm on Saturday 22nd September. Since Mundubbera is 4.5 hours' drive from Brisbane, many city players make a weekend of it. We start with a strategy meeting and informal dinner at the Royal Hotel, starting with first arrivals around 6:30pm and continuing until late. The Royal Hotel serves meals until after 9pm. The golf is followed by a quick presentation at the Golf Club and a BBQ at Mark Williams' place for the city players. Some City players stay on for Sunday to play in the Monthly Medal competition starting at 12:00noon registration and 12:30 tee off. For accommodation we recommend the Billabong Motor Inn or the Mundubbera Motel. Both are between the Royal Hotel and the Golf course and close to both. (Everywhere in Mundubbera is close to both.) |
