BUSH TELEGRAPH

ROTARY CLUB
ZIMBALI
ROTARY CLUB
No doubt many of the Bush Telegraph recipients
would have seen the article in the recent
Courier covering the achievements in serving
our local community by the Zimbali Rotary
Club. I must admit even I, as a charter member,
am amazed at how much is achieved by
so few! The question arises, what motivates
you to achieve these goals and I believe there
are a few reasons.
Firstly, there is the desire to put back something
into society by those who have made
a success of their lives and let’s face it that
should cover all who live in Zimbali.
Secondly, Rotary statistics show that a major
reason for joining Rotary clubs is fellowship.
We have regular fellowship events and these
events have proved to be very enjoyable and
fun! All work and no play, does not feature in
our club. Also, as per the saying, “the joy is
in the giving”, the greatest thing we can give
is our time! Time is precious and we enjoy
giving of our time to support our local community.
Please take this as our personal invitation to
join us at one of our regular Thursday evening
meetings at the Bush Buck Club. Meetings
start at 6.00pm and generally finish by
7.30pm where we have snacks provided, but
bring your own tipple!

Often people have a preconceived idea of what
Rotary is about, i.e. a networking club for
businessmen but this has changed dramatically
as most of our members are ladies, e.g.
our Club President, Julie Cloete.
