To make a difference, achieve something very special and raise much needed awareness

and funds for rotary Projects.

A few facts:

Since 2000 Australian Rotary Health have channelled over $20,000,000 into Australian health and medical research

projects and in 2012 $2,737,000 was disbursed in research grants and scholarships.

There were over one hundred and ten thousand reported cases of Cancer in Australia in 2012, with Prostate Cancer being

the highest of all cancers totalling over eighteen thousand and also having the second highest mortality rate, second only t o

Bowel.

1 in 7 men will get Prostate Cancer

1 in 25 men will die from Prostate Cancer

Every THREE HOURS A MAN DIES OF Prostate Cancer

Should anyone wish to know more I have a copy of Craigs presentation.

Kerry presented a book to Craig, sadly I am sure he was telling a very interesting story about hot,

cold, tepid, weather etc, but I was helping David bring in the meal and missed it sorry Kerry.

And what the heck did you do to my photo program on my phone. Not only will in not open, but I

then deleted it and now it wont load on my phone!! Sheesh, no photo of you in this weeks edition.

OUR HISTORY

In 1998 the Rotary Clubs of Queanbeyan and Queanbeyan West Rotary decided to sponsor a new Rotary Club

based in Jerrabomberra. Bill Lilley, John Snedden and Peter Jarvis from Queanbeyan West took on the joint roll of

mentor (Peter Jarvis went on to become our Charter President).

Advertising for potential members began in March 1998. After a successful campaign, the Club was chartered on

18 November 1998 with 20 members. We are an unusual club as we have a very high proportion of female Members.

Initial meetings were held at the Jerrabomberra General Storethe venue was very good until we grew in

numbers. We then moved to the Jerrabomberra Community Centre for a few years. We now meet at the

Jerrabomberra Public School Staff Room, on Thursdays (6.15 for 6.30 pm). As at 11 Jun 2013 the Club has 27 members

11 female and 16 male. Included in this are seven married couples. We also have 4 supporters of the Rotary Club.

(Charter) President Peter Jarvis ran competitions to select a name for our Club bulletin and a design for the

Club banner. There were some good and (very) bad suggestions. Pam Spencer suggested the winning bulletin name;

Jerraganda. The banner design by David Stevens was eventually selected. The design incorporates a goose and the

windmill associated with the original entrance to the estate.

Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.
