PRESIDENTS REPORT
Last Monday evening, I attended the Wandin-Seville Bendigo Annual
General Meeting at the Wandin Hub. The meeting was also attended by
numerous community groups who received a financial donation as part
of the Banks Tokens of Appreciation programme. Amongst the attendees
were representatives from sporting organisations, primary schools, CFA
branches, and other community groups. Wandin Rotary received a
financial donation of $180 which is very much appreciated. The total
amount of money distributed on the night was in the order of $20,000.
Our thanks go to the wonderful work and support given back to the
community by the Bendigo Bank.
On Wednesday evening, we had our Annual General Meeting of the
Rotary Club of Wandin. The majority of the Office Bearers were elected,
