A Young Peoples Dinner
Posted by leo in Avenues of Service, Club Service, District, International ServiceThe Dinner meeting on the 1st of march was a great show of youth in action. We were pleased to have Rotary Exchange student Kirsten speak to us about her impressions of Australia as a young Danish girl. Kirsten, who is only 16, was remarkably fluent and in her observation and comments both accurate and kind. In fact she was a great delight to the members present and simply reinforced along with our other guests that the kids are doing OK.

The evening demonstrated our need to continuously support these great Rotary programs that provide such inspiration and opportunities for our young people.
We also were pleased to recognise what is generally become know to club members as the ATeam. This team of young people assists in almost all community activities the Club undertakes from BBQ’s to the Australia Day as well as Second Bite Roster. The grandsons, god-daughter and her cousin of a member of Port Melbourne these four young Australians are now considered an integral part of any external activity we undertake.
Benjamin (Benny) Griffiths, Daniel (Deeg) Griffiths, Gianne (Bongchick) Phung and Jana (TukTuk) Nguyen make up the team.
President Geri commended the team and presented Benny, Deeg and Bong Chick with a certificate of appreciation and a club cap. Unfortunately Tuk Tuk was overseas on University break and was not able to be present but was recognised by Geri and although missing not lost.
