PRESIDENT ELECT’S REPORT
RC Bendigo President Brian Figg, guest speaker Robin DeCrespiney and RC Bendigo Strathdale President Greg Penno at Tuesday’s meeting. This week we had a joint meeting at All Seasons with Bendigo Strathdale with some 60 odd Rotarians and partners in attendance. Thank you to all our members (and partners) whom were able to make the evening and support this event - a wonderful atmosphere, and great to mix with other clubs on occasions - should be more of it!.
Our guest speaker, Robin DeCrespiney captivated the audience with an enthralling presentation, on firstly why she took on this project - it was actually going to be a film script project.

SECRETARY Kaye Graves
Robin then brought home the enormous difficulties, the challenges and life or death decisions faced by Ali Al Jenabi as his life unfolded - I must confess as Robin recounting Ali’s story I almost shedd a tear when reflecting and placing oneself in his position. It was understandable why Robin was so passionate about this subject. No Guest Speaker Summary this week - get hold of the book and read it yourself!
