CENTENARY COIN AND STAMP LAUNCH SUCCESS
from Ian Evans
The Rotary Centenary Coins and Stamp launch was held on Thursday11th March 2021, and was truly a wonderful event.
The seamless online communication link between the Melbourne and Sydney UBS boardrooms was impressive and allowed us to showcase the best of the two centenary clubs of Rotary Melbourne and Rotary Sydney.
I would like to acknowledge the leadership of those clubs dating back one hundred years.
Sir John Monash, the second President of the Rotary Club of Melbourne, and indeed every president since
charter, has led a broad church of members who have been able to assist the growth of Rotary in Victoria and across Australia, chartering new clubs and implementing a range of impressive projects that have brought significant benefits to the communities they have served.
I congratulate the current Rotary Melbourne leadership team of President Marion MacLeod, Immediate Past President Kevin Sheehan and Hugh Bucknall, all of whom have been so active in the promotion of Rotary’s 100 years of giving and leading our centenary celebrations.
They have helped to lay the foundation for the next century of giving.
