Clean Up Australia Day




Clean Up Australia DayIt was a great day to be with my fellow Rotarians and clean up the Ponds Walk trail at Eric Mobbs Memorial Park on Marsden Road in Carlingford. Together with Mike Morgan, Bass Bhaskaran, Philip and Cristy Newall, and our President Sudhir Mooray we collected rubbish through the park. We retrieved a large tyre, two chairs, front bumper of a car, a large television, and several bags full of rubbish. It felt good to give back and help our community in a relatively small way. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Rotary at the Start of the United Nations
During World War II, Rotary informed and educated members about the formation of the United Nations and the importance of planning for peace. Materials such as the booklet “From Here On!” and articles in The Rotarian helped members understand the UN before it was formally established and follow its work after its charter. Many countries were fighting the war when the term “United Nations” was first used officially in the 1942 “Declaration by United Nations.” The 26 nations that signed it pledged to uphold the ideals expressed by the United States and the United Kingdom the previous year of the common principles “on which they based their hopes for a better future for the world.”

History of Women in RotaryWomen are active participants in Rotary, serving their communities in increasing numbers and serving in leadership positions in Rotary. The 1989 Council on Legislation vote to admit women into Rotary clubs worldwide remains a watershed moment in the history of Rotary. “My fellow delegates, I would like to remind you that the world of 1989 is very different to the world of 1905. I sincerely believe that Rotary has to adapt itself to a changing world,” said Frank J. Devlyn, who would go on to become RI president in 2000-01. The vote followed the decades-long efforts of men and women from all over the Rotary world to allow the admission of women into Rotary clubs, and several close votes at previous Council meetings. |
