A lovely time was had by all at the Rose Hotel on 21st September. The club used to meet at this venue many years prior. Thank you to everyone who attended to help us celebrate - we look forward to many more fruitful years.
Barry Johnston shared some history, Eric Turner talked about Bunbury Central merging with us, and President Michelle Piotrowski looked towards the future of the club. Pam Thornton was the latest recipient of a Paul Harris Fellow for her work in spreading musical wisdom to children. The late Malcolm Prichard was recognised for his contribution to the club.

WORDS OF WISDOM FROM PAUL HARRIS (as mentioned in our President's speech)
May all things you ought have be yours.
May you not fall into the popular error of thinking that happiness is to be found in outdoing your neighbours.
May it always be yours to look beneath the veneer of life to the solid substance which lies beneath.
May you be builders, not mere climbers.
May you be able to appraise life's blessings at their real worth.
May you be free to act in accordance with the dictates of your own conscience and good judgment.
May you not be slaves to meaningless customs, social or otherwise.
May you shun the groove followers.
May you have vision to discern what is right, and the health, strength and will to do it.
