CanTeen Bandanna Day Part 1
Hi all,
Yesterday we started selling bandannas for CanTeen early because we expect the uni to be, shall I say, 'distracted' come Friday. They sold very well, especially this year's new designs.
We'll be doing it all again on Friday between 12pm and 2pm, so come and find us somewhere near the Oak Lawn.

Bulletin -- It's the last week!
YES! It's the last week of Semester 2. If you're not as happy about that as
me, then you probably have too many exams coming up.
But first:
* Our Canteen Bandanna sales are on this week on Tuesday and Friday roughly
between 12pm and 2pm. Meet us around the Oak Lawn (near the Social Sciences
courtyard) and help us make some money for CanTeen (teenage cancer charity).
Bandannas in a variety of designs sell for $3 each.
* Are you interested in making a table and going to Bingo at Subiaco
Rotaract's Inaugural Bingo Bonanza on 26 November 2005? If so let me know,
the details are on the blog: http://uwarotaract.blogspot.com
* Speaking of holidays, if you're finishing uni or disappearing over summer
and/or have anything you need to hand over (eg, committee directors), please
let me know.
* Also, we will have some regular meetings over summer (there's still work
to be done), however the first will be a dinner, and we'll wait until after
the exams for that. The details were in last week's minutes on the blog:

Okay, back to whatever you were doing.

Thanks
Thanks Julie for turning up early and helping me set up, Kylie for organising the warmer and to everyone for bringing food.
We got a donation of $50 to put towards the Pakistan Relief fund, so the night had a bit of a fundraiser element too.
Unfortunately I won't be around for any more UWA Rotaract meetings now as I finish uni this year, won't be here for the dinner after exams and I have to miss the bandana selling unfortunately now too (lunch with the High Court). I might see some of you at the chocolate appreciation evening though, and I'm sure I'll see you around after I join Subi Rotaract. For anyone else finishing uni this year and interested in joining Subi, I'm sure Cynthia would love to hear from you too.
Just one question in relation to the money I spent for last night - do I give you the receipts Jess to get reimbursed?
Thanks again.

INTERNATIONAL DINNER UPDATE- and who is the phantom venue holder?
VENUE
Offer of a new venue is great and we can all set up no problem.
One question who is it that is offering the house? There was no name on the comment.
OTHER INVITATIONS
Also I have invited the South Perth and Darling Ranges Presidents and any interested club members
DINNER SCALE
I think it is best due to time constrictions to make the dinner a rotaract based event. If anyone would like to bring a friend or two certainly do, just let us know by tuesday so we have numbers and can ensure enough food.
Regarding Rotarian i will send an email just inviting the Nedlands and West Perth Presidents and Youth Directors.
NUMBERS
DON"T stress venue awsome phantom holder so far the numbers only look to be 20.
