EUMUNDI ROTARY CLUB

Clean up Eumundi

The Rotary Club of Eumundi and community volunteers set off on 2 March to clean up Eumundi and its five tunnels for Clean Up Australia Day. Although Eumundi has the reputation of a tidy town there was still plenty of rubbish collected. By 9.30am the crew had returned to base carrying quite a cache of separated recyclables and waste materials. A big thank you to all of those who contributed to this community event. Clean Up Australia Day is an annual event where communities come together to remove litter and protect the environment. Thank you to Jang and John Etheridge from Sala Thai for providing a generous morning tea after the successful clean up.

Hats on for horses

Volunteers at the Sunshine Coast Riding for the Disabled (SCRDA) Inc facility at Monak Rd, North Arm are sporting new caps and sunblock.

Purchased with funds from Eumundi Rotary Initiatives Inc (ERIL), Secretary Jan O'Halloran said, “I picked up the branded caps today and they look as though they will be very popular with the volunteers!”

Jan also gave “a huge thank you to Eumundi Voice” because a recent article about their new volunteer orientation and induction day helped them reach a record with 30 potential new volunteers attending.

“Even better than that, more than 20 have signed up with us and are coming along to help with SCRDA sessions.”
