Industry Visit to the Engineering and Technology Facility- La Trobe University
The combined Industry visit to the Engineering and Technology Facility of La Trobe University with the Rotary Club of Bendigo South will be on Wednesday November 30th commencing at 7.45AM. Members are asked to gather in the Tutorial Room on the ground floor immediately to the right of the main entrance of the Engineering and Technology Building which is in Sharon Street opposite the roundabout. Tea and coffee will be available on arrival. There will be plenty of street parking at this time of day or alternatively parking is available until 10AM in the carpark to the left of gate eight which is the second entrance past the roundabout.
The format of the morning will be an address to explain the workings of the facility for half an hour. This will be followed by a tour of the facility for forty five minutes. Breakfast will be available in the Cafeteria at 9AM for those members able to stay. Myl Duffy has gone to a lot of trouble to arrange for a number of academic staff to explain their research and members will have the opportunity to meet Julie Rudner, Campus Director- La Trobe Bendigo.
Members wishing to stay for breakfast and in case of not being in attendance at last week's meeting should text their food and coffee choices to Jim Rolfe (0407554263). Breakfast options are:
- Breakfast wrap-Bacon/egg/hashbrown/relish
- 2x slices of banana bread with butter & jam
- Overnight oats & mini danish
All options $11 and barista coffee or tea ($4)= $15 per person (cash or card)

RYLA Rotary dinner and lunch details
Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) Rotary Dinner
The RYLA Rotary dinner is on Thursday 1 December at Camp Getaway. As host club we have invited all clubs in District 9800. Realistically, we can't expect many from the Melbourne clubs, other than the ones who are actually sponsoring RYLA participants. It's important though that our club and the other Goldfields clubs support the dinner. It's for members and guests including young people who might be inspired to apply for RYLA in the coming years. If you can be available to come along for what should be an interesting and good fun evening, please do so. The information including how to RSVP is in the flyer below.
Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) - Volunteers needed for the last day lunch.
RYLA runs from Sun 27 Nov to Sat 3 Dec. On the last day (Sat 3 Dec), the catering team want a break from preparing and serving the lunch so that they can be part of the final day festivities. As host club, we are asked to manage the lunch (prepare, serve and clean-up) using the Camp Getaway kitchen. We don't have to organise the provisions. We will need about 8 volunteers from 10am till around 3pm. We are expecting some volunteers from Bendigo Club (maybe 3), so if we could have 6 from our club then we will have it covered. If you can help with this, please advise Stew or Cathie.
RYLA Lunch Volunteers - Sat 3 Dec
Below is the list of volunteers I have to help with the RYLA BBQ lunch at Camp Getaway on Sat 3 Dec. Please text me (Stew Annan) on 0474 515 412 to confirm you are still ok to be there, and which shift you prefer (morning, afternoon or both). A couple more volunteers would be good so if you can spare a few hours, please let me know. The job is to prepare salads in the morning, cook the BBQ sing the Camp Getaway kitchen, load up the tables with the food and drinks, then clean-up.
Thanks, Stew.
