Around the Club 11-9-2012

The Garden DesignFest is on the weekend of November 17 and 18 and Hawthorn Rotary Club is taking this is as a significant fund raising opportunity.  Our members presence as helpers/guides will generate payments.

The Shadow hears that Chris Hanson is using the latest technology to allott members to times etc in his roster sheets for the given weekend.  It  will even surpass Ngaire's notice board and polite soliciting at meetings---heaven forbid.   The Shadow overhead undercurrent  among some stating that they still prefer the personal feminine touch....mmmm.  

Chris Hanson mentions that we will all receive an email in the next few days and within that there will be the technology to place one's name against a time slot.  He asks us to embrace the electronic age and fill a slot.

North Balwyn RC Golf Day on 19 October.      
With the plethora of golf days coming out of the wordwork at this time of year any golfer would have no excuse for having a rusty swing.  Again the event sounds great and two of our club swingers Simon O'Donoghue and Bill Troedel -so sad about the football :) - have full detail about the event and prizes.   The Shadow often wonders how these golfers get time to tend their own lawns.
