Presidents Report from Natalie JupeHello all,

Another busy week and January is flying by.

I heard from Tom Busby who we sent to RYLA he said The RYLA camp was absolutelyamazing! I am so glad he had a good time. He is currently in Melbourne but will arrange with me

when he gets back a date that he can come along to one of our meetings to tell us all about it.

Relay for Life is creeping up very very fast it is only 23 days away. Please be sure to keep thisweekend free as all hands on deck will be required. I will be circulating a roster for the BBQ attonights meeting there will be 3 x 2hr meals over the 24 hour period. If you are able to stay andassist the Relay committee with other activities outside of our BBQing times that would be evenbetter. There will be a roster circulating closer to the event for that. As most of you know I will bestaying the full 24 hours.

The good news is that the Queanbeyan Relay for Life has already raised over $23,000 and with 23more days until the event I am sure we will see this tally rise To join our team or make a

donation visithttp://relay.cancercouncil.com.au/2013/queanbeyan_2013/Rotary-Club-of-Queanbeyan

Rotary Dinners and Home Hosting

Session A: Dinner Thursday 10 January 2013 6.20pmwith Home Hosting Sunday 13 Jan

Session C: Dinner Thursday 24 January 2013 6.20pmwith Home Hosting - Sunday 27 Jan

Dinner venue: Ainslie Football Club Cost: $35

NYSF Rotary Dinners

The Dinners will be at the Ainslie Football Club in Wakefield Street, Ainslie. Rotarians will meet the

students attending the NYSF - from all parts of Australia - and hear a prominent scientist who is invited to

address the students. In past years speakers have included Australians of the Year. Arrive early to chat withthe students, including those from District 9710. Then well sit down with the students to eat. Clubs are

asked to substitute one of their regular weekly meetings in January 2013 and to encourage as many members

as possible to attend. Please advise me, as soon as possible, if your Club members are supporting one of the

NYSF Rotary Dinners and approximately how many may attend. A list of names of those attending will be

required by 14 December and any cancellations or additions no later than one week before each Dinner (ie 3

January and 17 January respectively).

Please note that the number of Rotarians / partners will be limited to 110 at each Dinner, to avoid overcrowding. Any

Rotarians who are listed at the RSVP cut-off dates will be required to pay. Please reply by email or phone - details

belowwith names of attendees as early as possible. Payment is required on the night and all Clubs will be provideda make-up list of attendees.

NYSF Home Hosting

A key function of each NYSF Rotary Dinner is to organise Rotarians to host two or more students at their

home during the Sunday following the receptionbetween 9:00 am and 8:00 pm. This provides students

with a relaxing day in a local home and enables them to unwind, and catch up on some sleep and some

washing. (Students do not need tours of the area, as this is done elsewhere in the NYSF program). Home

hosting has provided many happy experiences for students and Rotarians alike. Members who come to a

Dinner do not have to hostbut all are invited to do so. It would be a big help if Rotarians who wish to

home host could indicate this (together with preferred numbers) when registering for the Receptions. Hosts

will receive stickers for their badge at registration and students will approach those with stickers to arrange

Home Hosting during the reception. Even if you cant come to a Dinner, offer to home host - the students

will benefit.

RSVPsPlease email your members intended attendance and home hosting plans to me atadamdetotth@netspeed.com.au. For phone enquiries please call on 6288 1441 or 0402 464 327.
