President’s Report

What a pleasure it was to hear from our RYLA and RYPEN candidates and leaders and Start up Accelerator Program par-ticipant at our meeting on Thursday night. They spoke about their experiences and achievements, and the confidence gained and friendships made through attending the programs. See photo on the following page.

On Page 6 you will see an article about the current state of Rotary membership which we have reproduced from the RC of Cheltenham’s newsletter. It makes for some thought provok-ing reading.

A reminder that we will not be meeting at VGC this Thurs-day night.

Instead, we will be joining Hampton Rotary at the Palace Dendy Cinema, 26 Church Street, Brighton to watch the Fred-die Mercury movie Bohemian Rhapsody. If you have not al-ready booked, tickets are available at trybooking.com/YTUZ. Proceeds support Rotary’s End Polio Now Program.

Our members will be sizzling sausages on Friday evening at the Beaumaris Art Group Twilight Market, next to the Beau-maris Library, 4.00pm – 8.00pm.

A sunny 21 degrees is predicted for and Saturday’s Farmers Market. Drop in to these events if you can, pick up some art-work or fresh produce and enjoy a tasty snack.

Our Board Meeting will be held at my place next Tuesday

evening 13th.

And don’t forget to book for the Sangria and Tapas Fiesta on Friday 16th (details on page 4).

Come join us for a fascinating evening with Peter Jackson, CEO of the Melbourne Football Club from 2013 to 2018. Peter’s career in the AFL has spanned more than 20 years with roles including Chair-man of AFL Victoria and AFL SportsReady. He also spent more than a decade at Essendon as CEO and General Manager through the late 1990s and 2000s. Peter was appointed CEO of Melbourne Football Club in May 2013, with a mandate to lead a total rebuild of the Club, including the football and financial performance, as well as the culture and lead-ership of the club. His achievements at the Club over the past 5 years are truly formidable. Peter has been responsible for overseeing its turnaround from 2 wins and a $3 million reported loss in 2013 to a reported profit in 2017 of almost $1.36 million and playing in a Preliminary Final in 2018. The Club is now looking towards a period of sustained on field success as well as off field commer-cial growth. One of Peter’s greatest legacies has been developing people at the Club, and building a culture for creating a winning team. The Club now earns respect on and off the field and has also earned the reputation of being a leader in women’s football as well. The Rotary Club of Hampton are hosting this unique opportunity to hear first-hand from one of the great leaders in AFL! Bookings are essential for this evening. Date: 6.30pm, Tuesday, 13 November Venue: Milanos, The Esplanade, Brighton Tickets: $35 (including dinner)
