Smeaton's Tower is a most notable Eddystone Lighthouse on the Plymouth Hoe.
If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as,
if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was
dark. Dark would be without meaning. C. S. Lewis

Talking of planning there has also been
much going on behind the scenes with
establishing of a new Rotaract Club at
the University. A good core of
interested students was created
through the leadership programme at
the University in which a number of
Rotarians were originally involved.
Bruce helped them to build on this with
a stall at Freshers Fayre and they now
meet regularly once a week so that
hopefully it will be possible for them to
be chartered in the course of the next
few months. The prospective President
Luke will be joining us at District
Conference to learn a little more about
Rotary and looking even further ahead
he and a couple of others will be
assisting in presenting the Youth
Showcase at the end of October. I feel
particularly privileged to be President
during a year when it seems that a new
Rotaract Club will be formed bearing in
mind my original connections with
Rotaract which led to my eventually
coming in to Rotary!
On the sports side we had the Rhoda
Bernfeld Trophy ably organized by
Julian, with the winners Bruce and Jan
Royston-Smith being presented with
their prize at a very enjoyable supper at
the Chestnut Horse in Easton.
Last but not least still on sport and hot
off the Press we have what is now our
very own Marathon にthe Clarendon, in
the second year of our organization of
the event and with many lessons learnt
from last year it was even more smooth
running and profitable than last year.
Just about every member of the club
who was in the area today helped in
some way including a dozen members
of our new Rotaract Club and for the
first time three Rotarians were running
Simon Burge in a relay team, J-J in the
Half Marathon. I completed the Full and
raised £750 for Winchester Youth
Counseノノキミェぐ not sure if I will be doing
it again next year!!
Our next speaker David Leeks, a Trustee
of British Polio Fellowship, looked
forward にto World Polio Day when we
have a Street collection later in the
マラミデエ ;ミS デエキゲ デキWS キミ ┘キデエ ‘ラデ;ヴ┞げゲ own programme for the eradication of
Polio worldwide. It was useful to have
an insight into what having Polio
actually means in terms of its effect on
the survivors.
Finally, we had an Open Meeting which
was purely social although again Julian
helped us to look forward with his
presentation on Membership which he
will give at the District Conference, but
also reminded us exactly how far we
had come in the Club in broadening our
horizons and making our Rotary Club
not only appealing for others to join but
also more productive and active than
many others.
This last month we have been sorry
to see the departure of Miles Lemon
who has moved out of the area but
is not lost to Rotary as he plans to
join another Club. Miles will best be
remembered for his years as Trust
Fund Treasurer which he carried out
in a relevant and straightforward
way so we could all understand!
Although there have not been many
formal events September seems to

さノララニキミェ aラヴ┘;ヴSざぁ にas can be seen
elsewhere in the Bulletin.
We had three evening Meetings. At
the first we were privileged to have
our very own member John Eade,
enlighten us as to what it means to
be District Governor and give us a
little taste of the interesting things
that are in store for us at District
Conference later in the month.
We were also able to illustrate to
District and to the wider community
in Winchester the good work that
has been done in our area with the
presentation by John of the Rotary
Community Awards for the work
done with dementia sufferers by
Maria & Edwin Mundy and also the
late Sue Knight whose husband John
(whose father it transpires had been
President of Winchester Rotary 50
years ago!) collected the award on
her behalf.
This looked forward in that
Winchester Rotary has picked up on
the work of these very dedicated
people with the continuation of the
Reminiscence Coffee Mornings at
Sunrise every month.
We were also privileged to have Geri
Parby (REPoD) sum up at that
Meeting about the work Rotary was
doing nationally to tackle this very
real problem. Nick Bell
This last month we had the opportunity
to experience at first hand the Bandey
Hefler exchange when a group of
Rotarians came from the U.S. to the UK
and stayed for three or four nights with
local Rotarians in the District and were
shown the local places of interest,
history and introduced to the culture.
Jim and Janette Hull have been
involved for a number of years visiting
the U.S themselves and it was a
pleasure to welcome their guests John
and Pat Souza to one of our evening
Meetings. Thanks to Jim for
participating in the project and bringing
キデ デラ デエW Cノ┌Hげゲ ;デデWミデキラミが Hヴラ;SWミキミェ our exposure to different cultures and
introducing new opportunities for
world-wide co-operation.

With the largest single event in the
Winchester Rotary calendar just
over yesterday, I wanted, on behalf
of the Clarendon Marathon
Committee, to thank everyone who
has been involved this year for their
support.
JJ Heath-Caldwell, Fiona and their
enthusiastic team have worked
tirelessly to put everything together
over the last 12 months and with
the support of over 230 volunteers
on the day, the 900 or so runners
taking part on Sunday will be
cheered and encouraged along the
route.
A great race programme was
designed and organised by Steve
Cross and David Farthing.
As well as those members who have
offered their time on Sunday, the
following charities and groups are
providing volunteers and will all
benefit directly from a donation
after the event:
Clarendon Marathon Sunday 6 October
As well as volunteers from the new
Rotaract Club, we also have 20 other
volunteers from the University
joining us for the day.
Thank you again for your support
and we look back on a safe and
successful event.
Congratulations to President Nick
who ran the full Marathon, JJ Heath-
Caldwell who ran the half marathon
and Simon Burge who ran the last
quarter of a team relay.
Thanks to Rob Carter who cycled the
course ahead of the field.
Much appreciation to the St John
Ambulance for their expertise and
care at all throughout the day.
A huge tribute to all the Marshalls
and helpers. A full report will

Lunch Meeting was chaired by Gill

There was no speaker on that day,
which would be the usual pattern.

of the Bulletin.

John Berrington (Mapperly & Arnold)
Richard Chisnell (Chairman of Friends

David outlined poliomyelitis and
PSP. There was an extraordinary link
between David and Gill Russell,
when they were young, as they
shared the same consultant in
hospital, without realising it. On
Saturday 26 October, in Winchester,
on End Polio Day, the BPF will have
their awareness campaign.
At the Luncheon Meetings it is
hoped that a visiting speaker might
entertain for a brief moment or two.
Richard Chisnell did not disappoint
on this occasion as he spoke about
St. Cross and Almshouse of Noble
Poverty a medieval almshouse.
Amazingly, it is the oldest charitable
institution in the United Kingdom.
It was a very moving topic on Post
Polio Syndrome from David Leeks.
He is a Trustee and former National
Chairman of the British Polio
Fellowship. It is estimated that there
are as many as 120,000 people in the
UK who survived polio and now we
know that new polio-related
symptoms can occur later in life.

I wish to thank the following for
helping with our hosting of Pat
and John Souza from
Leominster, USA:
Winchester Mayor Ernie Jeffs
and Mayoress Barbara, Barry
and Christine Lipscomb, District
Governor John Eade and our
President Nick Bell.
This success was evident at
the Farewell Dinner where we
had excellent thank-you
speeches.
The event finished with "A

The Guardian added:
さShe was recognised not only by
affected families but by professionals
for her deep understanding of the
effects of brain diseases such as
Alzheimer's, and for her extraordinary
empathy with those involved.ざ
(13 September 2012)
Maria and Edwin Mundy, were very
much present and were duly
congratulated:
さMaria has also contributed greatly to
the work of the Reminiscence Group
and was deserving of praise and
recognition for extending the
memory cafe concept beyond Sunrise
and into the wider community.
Edwin has been constantly by her side
and has supported her despite
suffering from vascular dementia
himself. He has also, remarkably,
spoken publicly about what it was like
to suffer from the disease.

Warm tributes were paid to Miles
Lemon (see left) who attended his last
meeting before he moves to Kent. He
was an active Member since he joined
in 2006 and a much valued Club
Treasurer for many years. His suave
power-point presentations at the
AGMs won many plaudits. We wish
him every good fortune in the future.

the matching smart attire award.
At this meeting the Rotary
Community Service Award was
presented to three very special
people. Mike Knight who received the
award on behalf of his late wife Sue.
Simon Burge, Service Director
explained the particular
circumstances of the awards.
Sue Knight's personal connection with
the dementia sufferers and their
families had most impressed all who
met her.
She knew them individually and
understood their needs. She
encouraged them to come to
meetings and worked tirelessly to
support them.
To me she epitomised service above
self and continued to help even after
she became unwell, leading, sadly, to
her death from cancer last year.ざ
She initiated a monthly lunch club at
which people with dementia and their
carers could mingle with others
without the embarrassment.
Guests from Massachusetts
Also: Keith Woodward, Colin Cook,
John Wilkinson, Richard Chisnell and
James Larcombe.
John and Pat were hosted by the
Rotary Clubs of Winchester, Woking
District, Anton & Ewell.
The benefits of the exchange are the
sharing of Rotary ideas and
fellowship in our two countries.

as well as a first class & amusing
Post Horn Gallop solo. The
entertainment ended with the Last
Post and the lowering of the flag,
beautifully framed by the last rays
of the setting sun.
It was an excellent evening and the
attendance by so many Rotarians
reflects the close links that have
been established with the Garrison
and the place which Winchester
Rotary occupies at the centre of the
community.
Colin Cook, who hosted a number
of Garrison visitors on City tours
over the course of the year, was
present with Polly, as were two of
ラ┌ヴ さCキ┗キIざ ‘ラデ;ヴキ;ミゲが - Deputy
Mayor, Eileen Berry, and County
Councillor Jackie Porter, who for
some reason that the rest of us
never worked out, was the chosen
partner of Deputy Lieutenant
Brigadier David Harrison and got to
sit in the exclusive seats for the
Sunset Ceremony!
President Nick & Graham,
accompanied by John and Mary
Sweeting, decided to arrive in style
in the Rolls, and caused quite a stir;
Nick has never had so many
salutes!
An eclectic mix of about 70 of the
さGヴW;デ and GララSざ ラa WキミIエWゲデWヴ society were warmly welcomed by
the Garrison Commander, Brigadier
Allan McLeod. The wine flowed
and succulent canapés circulated.

said, さTwo caterpillars are talking

in one of those things!"
It is a rare privilege to have a visit
from the District Governor who is
also a Member. John Eade has been
driven to many Rotary Clubs in the
District by Members and on this
occasion he tailored his speech to
mentioning Amsterdam and San
