Meeting 9 August 2022
We had apologies from Rinna Ly, Charles Hili, and Russell Soedjadi.
Reports etc.
President Shiva Nandan gave some information of the regionalization Project for Zone 8 which would consist of Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. He played a short video outlining the aims of this Project. Members requested that a representative be asked to visit the club providing a further briefing before the Club is asked to vote for this.
Zone 8 Rotary Regionalisation Pilot Project
Rotary International is considering establishing a regional governance pilot to address membership, public image, communication, and fundraising challenges to ensure our organisation thrives long into the future.
Should this proceed, in Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands we have an opportunity to be one of a small number of regions across the globe to pilot this new governance structure, created by RI’s Shaping Rotary’s Future Committee (SRF). Read the background of this project here.
Why a Regional Pilot?
The overarching aim is to provide better and more direct support to clubs through a less layered, but more effective and contemporary structure. The ideals of Rotary are to be retained with the focus remaining on the Clubs and their engagement with each other and their communities.
In addition to potentially saving members time and money, the new structure will foster more vibrant club environments and provide doable and attractive roles that are accessible to more potential Rotary leaders.
By streamlining our existing governance structure, we will:
- Allow clubs sharing geography, culture and language to organise in ways that suit them.
- Eliminate duplication and remove layers of hierarchy to make Rotary nimbler and more cost effective.
- Bring together the best resources from across the region and make them easily accessible to every club.
- Improve communication effectiveness in order to enhance club and member engagement.
- Grow membership through new club types, flexibility, and partnership options reflecting our diversity.
- Attract more community, corporate, and government sector support by communicating with one voice.
- Enhance leadership and personal development activities to better suit our modern world.
- Foster more diverse perspectives in decision making.
- Reduce the burden of administrative responsibilities placed upon leaders.
Bunnings 7 August – We had a could day and while we had extra supplies, we still sold out early, we will have more again in September. I was interesting to see the growth in eftpos payments about 20%.
Immediate Past President Ted Mlynarz took the opportunity to present Steve Alexander with a letter from the President of Rotary International recognizing his 30 years with our Club.
Variety Club B to B Rally – we had an unexpected attendance from the co-driver of Car 15 who had returned to Sydney because of a medical emergency. He hopes to rejoin the rally at Bourke (Clutch Permitting). But if he is unable to complete the rally, he has a new project to complete before winter finishes.
