Members at Relay for Life

Hawthorn Rotarians attending were Noel and Marjorie Halford , Geoff and  Jenny Dumayne, David Rush  and Sue, Robert and Leonie  Ball, Brian and Holly Reid and of course Simon and Gigi O'Donoghue.

 It was a really good fellowship night .   We lit candles in support of Neil and of course in memory of Tony.
  
Congratulations to Graham Jacobs and his Relay for Life organising committee.

I attended the closing ceremony on Sunday morning and wanted you to know that Graham Jacobs paid a nice tribute to Tony Charlton who, as a Hawthorn Rotarian had conducted the closing ceremony for the last three years. Tony did so because he believed so strongly in this event. I was pleased to hear that it was also Tony's wish that the Rotary Club of Hawthorn continued with its involvement in the Relay for Life.

I am sure all of us who attended the night felt the same way.

Rotary was well represented with clubs from Balwyn, North Balwyn and Canterbury also taking part.

If any member would still like to contribute to the event they may do so by contacting the Cancer Council of Victoria.
