The 2018 Kids Fun Run WIth Thomas was a huge success - the RC of Emerald and District is delighted that so much was raised for the Monash Children's Hospital Cancer Research Centre and that everyone had such a terrific day.
Ashton Smith represented the area at the District Primary School Speech Competition and won! We knew the standard was high and this was borne out by Ashton's success - well done. Gloria supported Ashton on the night and has done a fabulous job, as always ensuring the smooth running and delivery of this program for our local primary schools.
The Rotary Club of Emerald and District's International Committee are proud to support Monica Innes in her Schoolies trip with a difference.
Monica will head off to Cambodia for 3 weeks to help and empower isolated communities. This is certainly living the Rotary motto of 'Service Above Self'. We are so impressed with Monica's choice to help others in celebration of finishing school.
Shine A Light on Mental Health is an initiative of Australian Rotary Health. Thank you to everyone who wore a hat and contributed to Hat Day last meeting - we raised $287.40 between the fine session and the Choc Lotto win. This will help make a real difference to much needed research (and we had some fun along the way)!

Thank you to everyone who came along and helped out at the Sausage Sizzle on Saturday 13th October. Where would a Rotary Club be without the odd one or two of these scattered throughout the annual calendar.
This raised $228 for the club and we are very grateful to Alan and the crew at Emerald Village Meats for their ongoing support of not only our club but other organisations in the local area. Thank you Alan!!
