The Presidential change of guard Tuesday 6th July 2021
 All smiles! A relief to reach the end of David Abbey's successful presidential COVID filled year. And what a year!! Innumerable ZOOM meetings but we managed distribution of hand sanitisers to nurses & police, clothing for Caroline Chisholm Society and Youth Projects - After Dark programme , computers for disabled children in Peru, computer aid for basic education and literacy of street children and student scholarship - Bahay Tuluyan Philipines, food for orphanage and supply pulse oximeters to Yangong General Hospital in Myanmar, follow up on cleft lip surgery project in Sri Lanka, celebration of 100 years of Rotary with our 100 beehive project, support of the Strathmore Mens Shed and fund raising for Bush Fire victims, monster raffles, Moonee Valley Art Show, BBQ's, various District 9800 grants and gracious donations from the public. | |
 One of the President David's pleasurable duties was to induct our newest member into the Rotary Club of Essendon. | |
 It's almost time to hand over the reigns of the Club. Serious discussion with our latest Paul Harris awardee (sapphire) Maria, for her outstanding service to Rotary over many years. | |
 President David Abbey's final act was inducting our new President for 2021 - 2022 Sunil Perera, before becoming a feather duster. | |
 President Sunil Perera in his mantle of office, addressing the Club, full of aspirations for the year to come. Watch this space for the Club's upcoming humanitarian projects both domestic and international. | |
