District Governor's Message (continued)

One of the best things a DG gets to do is recognise individuals for their contribution either to their club or the community or both.

One such occasion was to help Rotarian Sam Sali of the RC Shepparton celebrate his 50 years in Rotary. Sam has been a member of the RC Shepparton for that entire time and a stalwart within the Shepparton community being on numerous committees and industry bodies implementing many significant projects that have made a significant impart within both the local and national communities.

It was a great event with Local, State and Federal members present with many members of Sam’s family in attendance. There were also party balloons and decoration which made the event even more significant.

Well done RC Shepparton!

n many clubs involved in Australia day activities. Within my own club we traditionally cook breakfast in the Waring gardens prior to the official ceremony with awards and citizenship ceremonies. We had many volunteers as we cooked and served breakfast for around 270 people.
