June is . . .

 . . . . Rotary Fellowships Month, of course. 

Rotary Fellowships are international groups that share a common passion. Being part of a fellowship is a fun way to make friends around the world, explore a hobby or profession, and enhance your Rotary experience.

E. G. - The Facebook Group for Rotarians who Appreciate Beards, Moustaches and facial hair.

This group includes those without facial hair, but who appreciates the fact that we have it! (My wife likes my beard!)

Not to be outdone, the Jesters came up with their own example; in a conversation between Hippocrates and Homer:

"Ars longa, vita brevis, occasio praeceps, experimentum periculosum, iudicium difficile."  - Hippocrates, 460-370 BC (Image, right, from Wikipedia)

"Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand." ---Homer Simpson

How nice to welcome Norm Franzi to the club: a Barrister with marathon running as a hobby. 

Here he is, moving at pace, on the way to becoming the Victorian Masters Champion in 2014/15.

Now he is in Rotary, he can run, but he can’t hide.
