'ROTARY BRINGS HOPE'.
Bruce Timbs bravely took on the Charter Presidency and served the dub for the next 18 months in that role. The Club initially met at The Canberra Club and later the Red Door Restaurant in the Travelodge Hotel. As members found out more about each others strengths, we explored avenues for raising funds such as an auction and dinner night at the Red Door Restaurant. Other activities that Club Members participated in in it's first year were:
Red Shield Door Knock: Assistance Rotary Youth Exchange.
Sponsored attendances of youths at RYPEN, RYLA & the CRA National Science Summer School.
Funds were contributed to:
- RYPEN-RYLA
- CRA National Science Summer School activities $500.00
- Polio Plus Campaign $1,700.00
- Australian Rotary Health Foundation $200.00
