This week myself, Roger Lescun and Dennis Martin met with representatives of Albury City Council and Stuart Gordon Landscaping at Brown’s Lagoon to discuss the Rotary Memorial area to be developed there. With the passing of Rob Burns and Derek Beveridge this year I can’t think of a better year for this project to be completed. The Club received a lovely note this week from Derek’s wife thanking us for our contribution to Derek’s service. I’m hoping that the plague will be placed early in the New Year. This project commenced back under the Presidency of Dennis and has been funded by way of a grant from Albury City Council, lots of sausages sold by you guys and a grant from Foundation. Talking of Foundation (as it is still Foundation month for another week) .. this week Alice Glachin came to the Club meeting with a $100 to be donated to Foundation. Alice and Nick keep a tin at the counter of Beacon Lighting and the $100 has come from loose change being contributed to the tin. Simple idea and one that benefits all. Remember that 50% of all funds donated to Foundation come back as grants to our Club. Recently we have benefitted with a contribution to the Brown’s Lagoon Memorial Area and funds for our River of Stories project.
