    We are getting a great response from clubs who are deciding on their activities and projects for District Project Day 2011. Thanks to everyone who has sent in their ideas, and please keep them coming!
    Let's really start 2011 off in great style with a bigger, bolder and better district project day.
     
    Actions that you can continue with:

    * Identify your club's idea and its liaison person. If you can’t come up with an idea, call a local school, church, or community group and ask what your club could do to help, or have a look around in the community and identify somewhere that could do with a bit of a tidy up.
    Then contact  me, Warwick Johnston, District Co-ordinator, with your  idea and let me know whether you will be out in the community on Saturday 26th Feb or Sunday 27th February.

    Remember to keep it simple and have fun.
    The aim is to raise awareness about Rotary in your Community.

    If you need any kind of help just email Warwick at: warwick.johnston@clear.net.nz
     
    Thanks again

    Warwick

    A team is going to Zambia to perform heart surgery on children there – instigated through a Zambian doctor, Munanga Mwandila,  who is  domiciled at Christchurch Hospital. There are several elements to the project, which is well organised and structured, with equipments, technicians as well as the surgeon and other medical staff involved.
    Visit www.MutimaProject  first to read more about it. I believe it would be an excellent one for Rotary to be involved with, especially as there is a 5 year programme and a strong self-sustainability element to the project. There is a full proposal in hard copy form with budget which I have been sent if you like to see it.  For more information contact Dawn Sanders (Port Nicholson Club)
