25.01.2022 A great evening was enjoyed by all last Monday night as Kurrajong North Richmond Rotary Club members attended the annual Melbourne Cup Eve Sweepstakes Dinner hosted by Richmond Rotary Club. Besides Steve Hile’s fantastic phantom race call, the highlight of the night was the Ladies and Men’s Fashions of the Field parade. Here we see the finalists awaiting the judges decision after strutting their stuff. Congratulations to the winners, Valerie Percival and Jim Fenech.

23.01.2022 It's Reconnect Week! This is an internationally celebrated time on the Rotary calendar dedicated to renew and build relationships with past Rotary program participants and Rotarians. Including alumni in your membership strategies is key, as alumni are already aware of Rotary, the good it does in the world and the personal/professional benefits.... Past program participants can refresh their ties by visiting club meetings, helping with projects, and engaging online. By doing so, they can experience again how Rotary reshapes lives locally and globally.

20.01.2022 End Polio Now Train (bus) ride A great reason for being at Richmond station for the 10.11am End Polio Now train this morning. Rotary members & Friends of Rotary were keen to join the End Polio Now Train going to every station on the Sydney City Rail network (170 stations- 813 kms).... Past President Paul Rogers and his wife Anne together with Rtn Terry Kennedy were ready to board the train..... except track work from Riverstone to Richmond had cancelled all trains and buses were operating. That’s life ... but the humanitarian work of Rotary continues to make a difference. Polio Plus the Rotary campaign to end Polio has nearly eradicated Polio worldwide, with only a few cases remaining in Pakistan an Afghanistan.
