Linda O'Brien chaired this morning's club meeting at Aila Cafe in Cheltenham - the first club meeting for the new Rotary year 2025 - 2026, and for Grant Perry presiding as President. It was an informal get together since Cilantro is closed for these weeks during school holidays. Linda commenced the morning with a fun Quiz of selecting the originator of quotes made by famous people - many of which dated back to a much earlier time that was challenging for some. Nevertheless, yours truly won the prize - a lovely bottle of pinot noir from Tassie.
President Grant hoped everyone enjoyed their time at Changeover on Saturday. He thanked Ron for being Master of Ceremonies, Linda for organising the event and the wonderful decorations, PDG Ian for the slideshow that was on display throughout the evening, and the helpers who assisted during the evening.
