There will be no Lunch meeting this Thursday as directors are visiting overseas sister clubs for their officials installation

Dear fellow Rotarians,

Our official installation was over last friday. I felt it was a success given your support and given the great organisation by our Organising committee headed by chairman Tan Kay Hui. Feedback from all present were positive. I also wish to thank all those who had helped out at transporting our visitors (sister clubs) to and from the airport, hotels and the installation venues. Not forgeting all those who had bought extra tickets inviting family and friends and those who had supported the event by advertising.

As for those of you who were less involved but turned up at the event, I salute you for demonstrating your support for this new President and his board. It signals your willingness to continue flying the Spore-West flag with us together. Those who had told me your family and business schedule and commitment had coincided with the event (I express my appreciation that you care to inform me). I hope you would be able to make other events planned for you during the year.

Meetings and Program for July 2007 :

As your new President, I shall be presenting to you and to all members my plan for the year. Plse notify all members that their presence at our first meeting on July 5, 2007 will be most appreciated by myself personally and by our board members as well.

Secondly, on July 12 and July 19, the following directors will present their plans to the club members :

1. Club Service Director - Lai Bou Leong        12 July   (15 mins)
2. Program Director - Michael Witt                  12 July  ( 10 mins)
3. Youth Director       - Tay Wei Lien               12 July (15 mins)

Directors may wish to discuss the above with me by phone (look up old blue book) or when we visit Dhonburi this week.

As for members who strongly feel they wish to influence or have a say in the activities of the various Avenues of Service, I urge that you be present to share your ideas. We will try to incorporate them.

Plse note I am off to Bangkok tomorrow. Call me on my mobile if you have questions.
 
Thanks !

Yours in Rotary,
