Our club supports Eddie's Van via the wonderful efforts organising over the summer by our member Denise Schellback, and the volunteers she wrangles. For those who can't volunteer to help out, you can still contribute by dropping off or having your empty containers collected by Containers for Change and using our club number.
We've set a goal of $500 to raise to give to Eddie's Van to help cover their costs. You have until just after New Year to get those bottles in!
A day full of fun, laughter, and friendship and the Annual Picnic for Children with Special Needs sponsored by South Brisbane
Rotary Club.
Our club sent along Monika (in the red sunnies) & Matt Christopher, Angela da Silva Murphy as volunteers and of course DG Mark Williams made an appearance. We loved supporting South Brisbane Club's wonderful event in a practical way.
Shout out to our member Geoff Baker who made a stellar effort providing live music and entertainment for kids and volunteers alike!

Thanks President Dan and the Paddington Club for organising this super fun day - NO MEETING ON MONDAY 1 September - come to this or Rotary Institute Leadership Training instead.
The success of a Rotary Club depends upon good leadership and with the annual turnover of leadership roles there is a constant need for new leaders.
The Rotary Leadership Institute is a grassroots, multi-district leadership development program whose mission is to strengthen Rotary clubs through quality leadership education.
Attendees will receive a comprehensive introduction to Rotary's entities, processes, programmes and goals as well as gaining more knowledge of the vast topic that is Rotary.
Rotary Leadership Institute is especially suitable for newer Rotarians. Some people call it "Rotary 101". Rotary Club of Brisbane will pay for you to attend! CLICK HERE TO REGISTER.
Rotary Leadership workshops are run over 2 days. This workshop will be held on 31st August, and 14th September 2025. Attendees should attend both days. Each day commences at 8:30am and finishes by 3pm.
The attendance fee of $50 covers a light lunch on both days and morning tea. Since our club is sponsoring our newer Club member's attendance, you can choose "Bill Me Later" and you will receive an invoice by email which you can forward to our Treasurer Celia.
