Invocation:
Oh lord and giver of all good, we praise thee for our daily food.
May Rotary Friends and Rotary ways help us to serve thee all our days.
Guest Speaker Change
 
Please ignore the previous Bulletin, I made a big mistake in omitting to change the Guest Speaker after Keith Adams had done so much to re-arrange the program.
Our Guest Speaker will be District Governor Jane Owens who will be visiting our club to meet with the Board and members and to tell us about what is happening in District 9500 and possibly 9510.
Members, Friends and partners would be welcome to attend.
I apologise for the previous bulletin that missed this important information.
 
 
Letter to the Editor
Bonjour Keith....et Le reste des membres du club.
Apres plus de deux semaines en France  nous patrons pour Londres.
Sad to say goodbye to Lyon, Avignon, Bordeaux and Orléans.
...yes, and also Paris.... although it didn’t seem quite like the real France of the other places.
A little more Maurice Chevalieur and Follies Berger’s and a million tourists than the gentle Barossa-ness of regional France.
And how warm and friendly it was..... fresh cheese, good wine, bread.... oh, what bread !
My early secondary school “francaise” got us past most situations before realising that they are quite ready and willing to “elp” des Australian touristes
with really good English. As long as you “ ‘ave  Le go” at Francaise .
Alors , adieu et peut-etre  un message d’Irlande ou des river de la Moselle .
Acclamer....
Sichy et la belle Mignon
See yas when I’m looking at yas.... end of August
 
Ian Mader
One of our new Members, Ian Mader, entertained us with his life story at our most recent meeting. Ian is Barossa born, went to school in Nuri, and was a Rotary exchange student for a year to the USA. He went on to uni where he studied building and real estate. Careers included building, land developing, hardware, winemaking. It is always fascinating to hear Rotarian's stories.

Quiz Night for the Uganda Dental Project
Don't forget to register with Gavin Sidhu for the Quiz Night on 10th August. It is $10 per person in groups of 8 per table.
Lots of prizes and surprises for the evening which will be a test of your general knowledge for the quiz, your luck for the spot prises and the depth of your pocket for the auctions.
The Venue is the Clubhouse but as the Management has given us the room for free, there will be Bar Service only, no Bring Your Own. Call or email Gavin, or book on the club Website through the Events option.
A great fellowship, socialising and entertaining evening that will generate funds for a very worthy cause.
