And maybe a chocolate too. Well be working out plans for Rotary Park stage 3, continuing with planning our major fundraising activities such as the Oct Art Show and our Christmas Trees. What is your club doing to keep working together? We can do this together!

10.01.2022 It's getting close to Christmas Tree time! On Friday 4th December in the main street of Warragul, the Rotary Club of Warragul will be creating a "pine for...est" for you to come and choose the perfect tree for your Christmas. It's happening from 3pm on the corner of Smith St and Victoria St (near the cenotaph). All trees are the same price ($40) regardless of the size and you can pick them up there and then or arrange for free local delivery the next day. The Rotary Club will also be selling stands for the trees too. All funds raised will go towards the Rotary Club's community projects. The Warragul Business Group is proud to support this community event.

01.01.2022 A QUESTION FOR YOU: If your friend was going to celebrate his/her 100th Birthday, would you make sure you could attend, find a suitable gift and be part of ...the celebrations? Well, Rotary Sydney, Wellington, Auckland and Melbourne are planning to celebrate 100 years of Rotary in Australasia in 2021. So what will be your gift or project? With the Centenary in April 2021 fast approaching, Rotary Melbourne together with the other Centurion Clubs are actively encouraging all 1,374 Rotary Clubs within all 27 Districts throughout Australia and New Zealand to identify and deliver their Centennial Project. We can look at this Centenary as a gift! A gift that is 100 years in the making. We will not get another Centenary in our lifetime.

01.01.2022 Club member Andrea Klindworth while visiting family in the USA went to a meeting of the Rotary Club of Red Wings - near Minneapolis. Some things the same as Warragul RC, others quite different, like the ice fishing competition run each year by the club!!
