Welcome to Eastern Hutt Rotary's e-Bulletin.
This is the last one for 2017, so a Merry Christmas to all and have a great 2018. smiley
2017 CHRISTMAS FUNCTION:
Being the last formal gathering of the year, it was once again full of surprises, fun, and laughter!
We were entertained by Helen's husband, Howie, who performed 3 songs, followed by them doing a heartfelt duet together. This was finished off with them showing a Rock 'n Roll item.  It's great they were happy to share their passion.
John Terris eagerly lead the carol singing at the end of the evening, before Sergeant Ron Hunter gave us a 'to be continued' hilarious account of,  "Life with Aunty Gladys".
Week's Parting Thought:
“What has been accomplished by others is now Rotary history. It is our time to add to our glorious history. What is said of us in the future will be determined by you and me.”
 
- 1978-79 RI President, Clem Renouf, Rotary Club of Nambour, Australia.

Christmastide 2017
 
Posted by Richard Perry on Dec 04, 2017
Our traditional cards show snowy scenes, well rugged up choristers singing lustily, and a robin perched on a branch pretending to a merry chirping, while freezing its …um, feet off. But as a New Zealand carol reminds us, here we have an upside-down Christmas.
