Long Table Opened

On Sat 4 Nov the Mayor Cr Bev Colomb accompanied by Cr Sam Hearn officially opened the long table with the unveiling of the plaque on the nearby rock. Pres John outlined the reasons behind the project and Cr Colomb thanked the Rotary Club for its many contributions in the community and particularly for this initiative. The Mayor also presented the Club with a Mayoral Commendation for the building of the Long Table.

I am proud to lead our club again for the 2017-18 year. Recently celebrating our 70th year, we have much of which to be proud. However the future provides us with some exciting and challenging opportunities to continue to serve our local, national and international communities. In our 70th year we aim to plant 70 trees in our community, perhaps in conjunction with the local Shire Council.

We intend to rejuvenate the clock tower in Main Street Mornington, which we built twenty years ago jointly with the Shire.

We also aim to carry out maintenance on our four gazebos we build in various Mornington locations.

The official opening of the 'Long Table' built in Mornington Park will be a highlight of this coming Spring, and I hope this will serve as a focal point for families, community groups or schools to use when they visit the Park.

Our 46th Art Show held in January will again be a highlight of our year.

We are a small club now of about 18 members. We would love to add some 'new blood' to our ranks to help continue our community work. Local business representatives, professionals and particularly women are urged to come along and check us out on Wednesday evenings 6:00 for 6:3-pm at Brooklands in Tanti Ave Mornington.

Again I look forward to another great year in the Mornington Rotary Club.
