Guest Speaker - Sir Anand Satyanand, Former Governor-General of NZ

Posted on Oct 21, 2022

Our distinguished guest arrived in the car park just as I arrived. Former Governor-general, District Court Judge, Ombudsman, Chancellor of Waikato University with numerous other achievements, Sir Anand Satyanand was dressed not "in a scarlet robe trimmed with vermin" but in a charcoal suit. Somewhat nervously I asked how I should address him. "Just call me Anand" came the reply. "And I'm Susan," said his wife. He was our guest speaker for the night.

Thank you to everyone who assisted with the clean up of the Hutt Riverbank last Sunday. We covered from the Ava rail bridge to the Melling bridge which was an excellent effort. Included the team were Ian McFadden and Susie Dopson, Ian's daughter and son-in-law. Thank you so much team.

Thanks to Colin White & Lindsay Richardson

Guests attending our Monday 17^th October meeting were Colin White and Lindsay Richardson. Their attendance provided an opportunity to formally thank them for the invaluable assistance they have given to the club.

Parting Thought

Glenda Barratt provided the parting thought at the end of the evening -

“Every time one person chooses a new way to respond to the challenges of life, each time an individual chooses a new option, that person then becomes a living bridge for all the others who choose to follow in that person’s path" - Greg Braden

Rostered Duties & Responsibilities:

Please study and plan ahead, especially if your Committee needs to provide an updated Report. A reminder that it's also your responsibility to find a replacement if you are unable to fulfil your duty.
