WELL, Christmas has been and gone and 12th night came round again, so the Rotary Club of Gawler Light Christmas display had to come down.
Fortunately, no damage from weather or falling branches this year, so only the usual maintenance and improvements. Once again, our thanks to Steven Clark of Steven Clark Lawyers for the use of the site and the power supplied.
The club was also very pleased that one of its programs ‘Wheels in Motion’ is receiving the town of Gawler’s community group of the year award at this year’s Apex Australia Day breakfast.
This program, started by the club in 2018, is managed by member Dave Weatherly and his more than able assistant Kirsten Impett. Thanks must also go to Keith Scott of Keith’s Driving school, Peter Kittle Motors, RAA, AMP services and Café Nova. Also, to the program’s mentor drivers, many of whom are not Rotarians.
The Rotary Club is very proud of this program and the way it fills a need in our community.
Fund raising has been somewhat restricted this last year for obvious reasons, but we hope to see you at one of our regular Bunnings sausage sizzles in the new year to help us keep these, and our other projects, both local and international, running.
