sage out there, as well as being a medium tolong term recruitment opportunity. We’ll have adisaster box there, as well as a Community po-licing car, and past participants in Rotary youthprogrammes. Thanks to those members whohave volunteered to staff the Information stalls.

One of the outcomes of the Board meeting theother week is that we have agreed to slightlyincrease the joining fee to $100. This is so thatwe can include the Beaumaris Rotary Jacketand Cap as part of the new member kit. Therewill be a slight subsidy from the operationalbudget for this. This will mean that new mem-bers will be bale to be clearly identified asRCOB members at community events and willaid in us looking professional for these events.Megan has impressed the Board with her dedi-

cation and commitment to our presentation, thebetter we look the more the community want tobe associated with us.David Hone has tasked me with sending roundthe sign up sheet for the Croquet night at RoyalMelbourne on the 22nd of October. Dress is ex-pected to be “late formal Colonial” so get thosepith helmets out. Thanks to David Hone for fill-ing in for David Lea, he has scared me enoughso that I have put my column in on time.Yours in Rotary

Royal Melbourne Fellowship Night 22 Thursday 22 OctoberFor this night I havenegotiated a twocourse meal for $35pp with 2 Croquet

Lawns and ballsthrown in.

We need to form 4teams of 4 players( We may have someteams with one ortwo more or less) Wewill be playing 2 peo-ple a ball with two

balls in each team.The basics of thegame and the ruleswill be explained byme and my rulingswill be final! Team A will play Team B on Lawn 1 and Team C play Team D on Lawn2. There will be a trophy for the two winning teams and awards for BOG and the ris-ing star.

Drinks and spectators will be allowed on the lawns and advice may be freely given.

Chairs and tables are available near by and some lawn side

I suggest we start the drinks and Croquet at 5.00 pm, although I am prepared to bethere earlier if anyone one wants to warm up.

Those not playing Croquet can come any time before 7.00 when we will go in forDinner.

I think it appropriate wecome dressed in formal late

colonial dress.

Croquet was used by the Brit-ish as social game and it canbe learnt in minutes.

The tactics are what reallycount!

Please sign up on a form sentround at a meeting or emailand let me know. 

David Hone.

takes up a lot of her time. Lisa is hoping to make some money from the Business Hub but so farher efforts have been as service to the community. Lisa does see future career opportunities aris-ing from the Hub.
