President of the Rotary Club of Maroubra, Francis Cochrane, provides an update to all members and friends of Rotary. Fortnightly Zoom meetings are scheduled from August 16th. 
A letter from the President:
 
Dear fellow Rotarians and Friends,
 
Last Monday night, we had our first Club Zoom Chat get together. It was wonderful to catch up and we even had a guest visitor from the Lions Club.
Please note that we will have fortnightly Zoom Chats on Mondays at 7pm. The next meeting will be on August 16, 2021. I will remind you all a day or two before hand as we would really like to catch up with you, exchange funny stories and update you on Rotary matters.
 
It has been more than six weeks since our last meeting due to Covid. I am happy to report that the Board has not been idle, especially as we know that the need in our community is great.
Vivienne has been successful in coordinating with the SECC for grocery purchases in the amount of $2,000 and sponsorship of a special program called RAGE which is an Anger management course for youth.
 
If you wish to contribute on a more personal level, for example donating your Monday night’s dinner money, you can donate to our Club directly or go to the SECC website: https://www.secc.sydney/.
In the meantime, please stay safe and keep your sense of humour. Looking forward to catching up on August 16th.
 
Yours in Rotary,
Francis
President 2021-22
