A Note From The President![]() It’s been a quiet week in Rotary with no meeting on Tuesday due to the Melbourne Cup, a sad affair with no crowds, and the death of another horse on the track. However it doesn’t mean things are not happening behind the scenes and from Bob McKenzie’s reports the Op Shop is continuing to boom. Don’t forget they not only sell second hand goods but recycle batteries, bottle tops and bread tags, a few less plastic things in our environment. That’s true sustainability. We are all waiting to hear what is said by Daniel Andrews this weekend to see if there might be a way we can start our markets. The reports this week of no new cases or deaths is such a relief and we are looking forward to some months relative normalcy hoping that people are sensible and keep the situation under control. We are excited to be able to meet again face to face next Tuesday at Natalies – there will be no guest speaker as we catch up on the latest from everyone and of course full Covid 19 safety mesures will be in place. We will be no more than 20 people. I have also been advised there will be no serving of alcohol this Tuesday as Natalie’s new liquor licence does not come into affect until they day after. So it will be soft drinks for all. Good news to hear Marg George is now home after her operation and she is recovering with no rehab needed. A relief for Marg and her family and all of her friends. During the week there were frantic emails going between District and clubs about the availablity of grant money made available to Rotary at the last minute by the National Australia Day Council to be used for functions on Australia Day – a considerable amount. However there was a time limit and restrictions attached making it difficult for individual clubs to access. The upshot of it is that Templestowe Club have put in for a grant to run a function on Australia Day next year (Tuesday 26th January) – either a BBQ or afternoon tea at the Manningham council chambers precinct – all Covid Safe. Templestowe were looking for support from the Rotary Cluster and we agreed to assist with this. There is little detail at present but since it will not clash with any other activities we thought it would be a beneficial thing to be involved with. More about this soon. Our planning commiteee met for the last time on Thursday by Zoom to complete the Strategic Plan which will be sent out to members again shortly. It is expected that it will be presented formally to the club on 17th November for a show of hands then the club has a blueprint to work towards. It has been a most worthwhile experience and I thank all the people involved – Gavin Birch, Bob Fry, Ian Thomlinson and Kevin Hall for their unfailing support, ideas and motivation to get the job done. It is expected that strategic planning will become part of club culture in the future. Not much else to report other than Bob McKenzie’s tomatoes are very advanced compared with ours! Looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible on Tuesday.

You may want to save this page and review once restrictions ease as it could provide you with further guidance when considering reopening any of your op-shops, markets and even with respect to Club sanctioned gatherings: www.worksafe.vic.gov.au/coronavirus-covid-19-information-your-industry A Blast From The PastAustralia Day Celebrations 2011 - Dromana Club Covid Safe Protocol - MeetingsIf you’re consuming food or drink and seated at your table you can take off your mask. The rest of the time it should be on. If you go to take a call, want to use the bathroom or are paying for the meal, your mask should be on. • All Victorians have to wear a fitted face mask when leaving home unless they have an exemption. Remember to avoid touching your face whilst wearing a mask, wash reusable cloth masks after every use and replace your mask if it begins to fray or gets dirty. Will restaurants clean the table after every customer? • All venues are required to clean tables after every service. This is on top of the frequent cleaning and disinfection of regularly-touched surfaces, shared spaces and toilets and bathrooms. What about shared condiments, communal water bottle or drum of cutlery? • The government's guidelines encourage restaurants and cafes to replace high-touch communal items with single-use options where possible, but this isn’t compulsory. • Restaurants may swap out shared condiments for single sachets and communal water bottles for individual-use glasses, depending on whether they take on this advice. If reusable bottles and cutlery are used, they should be removed and washed after each seating. Coronavirus (COVID-19) Club PolicyPolicy Brief & Purpose
