It’s that time again, when we are able to get our next ‘travel fix’. Once again, tonight we are travelling close to home and exploring some of our own magnificent country! Make sure you bring along your partner, family and friends to enjoy ‘travelling’ to some iconic Australian destinations.
This month, we are going to board The Ghan and join Geoff and Di Double on their journey through the Northern Territory.
Tourism is an important economic driver for the territory and a significant industry in regional areas.
Iconic destinations such as Uluru and Kakadu and towns such as Alice Springs, Katherine and Darwin, make the Northern Territory a popular destination for domestic and international travellers.
Diverse landscapes, stunning waterfalls, picturesque wide open spaces, aboriginal culture and wild and untamed wildlife provides the opportunity for visitors to immerse themselves in the natural wonder that the Northern Territory offers. |

Over a million Aussies step up to clean up our parks and public spaces every year, donating their time to improve the environment. This is our chance to join one million other Aussies to show the Rotary cares about our community and gets down and dirty to deliver at least one clean park in our wonderful city! Cleaning up a small piece of Berwick gives a little self-satisfaction for one day and there is nothing wrong with that. Rotary can do way more than that, so join us at Buchanan Park to talk about the many other ways that Rotary can be a positive force in the community (while we are picking up rubbish of course!). You don't even have to be a Rotarian to join in! We are happy to have anyone who wants to give back to the community to join in and enjoy a morning chatting while we get to work.

Tonight our guest speaker is Rae Mackay
Rae held the role of Latrobe Valley Mine Rehabilitation Commissioner from June 2017 to June 2020 before becoming the Chair of the Mine Land Rehabilitation Authority Board. Rae has extensive mine rehabilitation related expertise, with more than 40 years’ experience as a practising engineer, hydrogeologist and academic. Rehabilitation of the Latrobe Valley Brown Coal Mine: the story so far. The Inquiry arising from the Hazelwood Mine Fire in 2014 identified mine rehabilitation and the lack of appropriate frameworks for rehabilitation as significant issues for the Latrobe valley mines and for the region. Recommendations were made on a way forward in terms of policy and legislation that have been rolled out over the last 5 years. This has been set against a backdrop of early power station closures that have occurred (Hazelwood) and have been brought forward significantly (Yallourn and Loy Yang). This presentation will give a brief snapshot of the key issues and the current status of rehabilitation planning for the Valley. |

Following the tragic loss and injury of Defence Personnel in Afghanistan in 2010, Harkaway local, Helen Comport, learnt of the need to reach out to wounded ADF personnel and honour their sacrifice for serving Australia on a combat deployment. The quilt, made to wrap veteran or Defence personnel, was such a powerful symbol in a traumatic time that it felt like an important issue that Australia should become involved in. Helen learnt how touched her son was when he received a quilt made by Americans following critical injuries he sustained in Afghanistan. Following this tragedy, Helen decided to set up an Australian group to recognise veterans and Defence Personnel touched by war by presenting them withquilts. Tonight we will hear Helen’s Quilt’s of Valour Australian story.

Tonight we will be assembling and packing 200 birthing kits for the Birthing Kit Foundation. Birthing kit assembly commences a 5:30pm. A regular club meeting and dinner will follow the birthding kit assembly. In partnership with the Adelaide Hills Zonta Club, Joy and the dedicated volunteers began assembling and distributing these simple kits around the world. The scale and impact of this project continued to grow and what was once known as the ‘Zonta Birthing Kit Project’ transformed into the Birthing Kit Foundation Australia in September 2006. Since our establishment, the team at BKFA has worked to extend and enhance our reach, forming strong partnerships with many Field Partners in the Sub-Saharan Africa, Asian and Indo-Pacific regions. Our work has expanded from the original Birthing Kit Program to a range of In-Country Programs that engage individuals, families and communities to create sustainable change and improve maternal and newborn health outcomes.
