Attendance will show support and give acknowlegement to all the work and rewards achieved over the Presidential year for Terry Murphy and the Board of Directors. The process of summarising the activities, finances and outcomes will fill you with pride. We also need your vote !

Good evening, sorry about the late notice.. just had some change of plans. This week Castlemaine Rotary will be delighted to have KLFM presenter Graeme Clarke (also Rotarian) and Red Cross volunteer Mandy Grinblat (or someone just as pleasant and knowledgeable) - to present their part of 'behind the scenes' of community emergencies. As we have now, a month to go before the Summer months arrive please come to this meeting to hear about two of the services that are preparing to help us, if we need, particularly in the case of fire or flood.

4 Rotarians required to assist with erecting a stage for the Pride Festival. Assemble at the Rotunda at 8.00AM.

Come and enjoy the presentation from Lindsay Callaway, owner of Warral Maldon. He is fifth generation beekeeper and been in the business for over 27years. Warral Maldon is run by an experienced team of dedicated staff in Maldon, Victoria, where 2,600+ hives produce over 150 tonnes of honey and 2,000kg of beeswax each year.!

WOW the year is flying ! Lets gather and have some fun. This week Castlemaine Rotary are gathering at The Taproom aka Shedshaker Brewing Company. We have been before and thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Please RSVP so we can reserve the number of places needed.

Erect staging for Resonance Strings Orchestra concert, pull down stage and remove immediately after concert.

Our final opportunity to touch base and finalise arrangements before the Truck Show. Important for key volunteers to be available so that any wrinkles can be ironed out.

It is also our official visit from DG Peter Shepheard. Peter and PDG Michael Lapina visited the Truck Show last year, so Peter understands the magnitude of our endeavours. It's also his best opportunity to combine visits to a couple of further-flung clubs — Castlemaine and Rochester — and while the immediate proximity to Truck Show arrangements is not perfectly ideal, we call on members to take the opportunity to meet Peter and help him get to know our club a little better. 

300 or more gleaming, glistening trucks parked around the oval at Campbells Creek Recreation Reserve! Live music throughout the weekend! Food, drink and entertainment for the whole family! Children <16 free.

This is not some quaint regional version of a proper truck show, but one that truck show lovers should get to at least once. Our Truck of the Show for the last TWO years was recently awarded Best of the Best at the Brisbane Truck Show, competing against winning trucks from shows all across Australia.

Informal debrief on the weekend's Truck Show. What worked? What could be improved? What do we avoid for the future?

We will use our normal meeting room, but order meals from the hotel's menu.
