CONSIDERATION

Nat Cook congratulates RCMV

“I would like to congratulate all of you on this wonderful milestone and send my sincere apologies I cannot be there to share in this celebration with you.

Rotary Club is such an important part of our community. The work you all do embodies the selflessness and caring spirit you all share.

Your club has become a family that opens its arms to all with a warm welcome. You should all be incredibly proud of the contributions you make and the changes you make in peoples’ lives.

Merilyn does a fantastic job in her presidential role and the club would not be what it is without each and every one of you.

I look forward to the start of Friends of Rotary in SA Parliament should it get off the ground.

I remember being at the last 100^th meeting before the merger of the two clubs to create what is now the Rotary Club of Morphett Vale, and now you are another 100 meetings in. This is a fantastic achievement.

I wish all of you the very best. Keep up the amazing work. As always, I am happy to be of any help I can. I look forward to the next milestone this club hits.

Enjoy your dinner and I hope you all have a wonderful night. Congratulations.”

Nat Cook MP

Shadow Minister for Human Services

Member for Hurtle Vale

Our Club's 100th meeting a huge success

Special guests, visitors and members enjoyed a very special 100th meeting of the Rotary Club of Morphett Vale on November 17th.

Formed by the merging of the Rotary Club of Noarlunga and the Rotary Club of Noarlunga East in 2018, The new Rotary Club of Morphett Vale has surged from strength to strength. Dini displayed photos of events, projects and social outings that proved that members of two different clubs have merged together into one new, vibrant and strong Rotary Club.

Special thank you to Dini, Joy, Phil, Garry and Ian for their help with setting up and packing up for the 100th meeting. Much appreciated by President Merilyn and members.

Best wishes for the next 100 meetings.

Christmas in the Park

Christmas in the Park is our last meeting for 2021 and will be held at Wilfred Taylor Reserve, Wednesday 15 December, 6 pm start.

The plan is to have cold meats and members and guests bring either a salad or a dessert to share.

The cost will be $10 per person to cover the cost of purchasing the meats (this way no one has to be cooking on the night). The money to be paid to President Merilyn at our meeting on Wednesday, December 1 at SAFC.

We will have our gazebo and 2 tables from the shed to set our food up on, table cloths, serviettes, servers etc so please bring a chair, a warm jacket, drinks and some warm weather.

Marion is organising a Left / Right game for all to participate in and we ask that everyone, members and guests buy a gift from an op shop - value under $5 wrap it and put into the bucket for the Kris Kringle.

We will also have some other games to play and some official guests attending.

All partners, friends are welcome to join us for some fun for our last meeting of the year.
