Newsletter for the Rotary Club of Greater Geraldton - Issue No.: 539 Issue Date: 2 Sep, 2019

The meeting opened with Acting Sergeant PP Viki Fennel calling the meeting to order and directing our attention to Vice President, Acting President PP Rob Houwen.

Invocation and Toast was performed by (alphabet) Hugh Lavery, without a toast to our country!! This was led by a Rotarian from the floor,

Terry Stewart gave us his thought for the day. I am still waiting for the second part!!

Douglas Bruce also got in on the act with his upside down burial.

The head table was very glamorous with PP Viki, acting President Rob, "everyone loves" Raymond and our guest speaker Russell Pratt.

Apologies were numerous. President Geoff is overseas, PP Raj is in the treehouse, PP Tony Emmott is in the land of the long white cloud, PP Doc Taylor is on a weight gaining cruise, Grant Woodhams is "working", PP Stabba is fishing, Bill Frazer is babysitting, PP Dan Crisp is recovering, Scotty Bennett has a hangover and Kevin Watson is spending his ill gotten gain!!

Anyone wearing a pullover or jumper can go to breakfast first.
