Good Morning, dear Rotarians!

I trust this message finds you all snug and dry, amidst the wet weather. As for me, I've been taking it easy this week, recuperating from a bout of sickness.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to PP Marcus for graciously taking the reins and leading our club meeting last Tuesday. Your willingness to step in is truly appreciated. And of course, a big shoutout to Allan and the rest of our dedicated club members for ensuring everything ran smoothly.

Last Saturday, some of us had the pleasure of attending the Monash Charity Gala. It was truly inspiring to be in the company of such incredibly generous individuals.

I've heard nothing but glowing reviews about one of our guest speakers from Tuesday night! Myra's presence was delightful, and I hope this experience opens up new avenues for her.

A special acknowledgment to Bob Allardice and the RORP team for their commendable efforts. Your initiative is making a real difference, and it's heartwarming to see some of our members lending a hand over the years.

Sending my best wishes to PP Catherine and her team for the Rotary market today. If you find yourself in the vicinity, do drop by and show your support.

Reflecting on the Object of Rotary, it's a gentle reminder of the values we hold dear: fostering friendships, upholding ethical standards, embracing service in all aspects of our lives, and striving for global understanding and peace.

As we approach Mother's Day, let's take a moment to celebrate the incredible people who shape our lives with their love and strength.

I leave you with a thought to ponder: What drove you to join Rotary, and what continues to inspire your journey with us?

Wishing you all a beautiful week ahead!

President Sangeeta.
