Incoming President Julie Irwin Addresses The Club

On Wednesday evening Rotary Victor Harbor held its first dinner meeting following the COVID-19 restrictions. Incoming President Julie Irwin addressed the members and set out her plans for the coming year.

Her year as President will be a busy one with many community-led projects and fund raising events planned, making it a year to remember in more ways than one, as Julie’s overriding request to members is to make it fun!

Members Drive Patients Thru Medi Ride Scheme

Members of Rotary Victor Harbor have signed up to help transport patients from their homes to hospitals and other medical appointments in a City of Victor Harbor Council Scheme. This service is run jointly between Southern Communities Transport Scheme and Medi Ride who combine to help those in need attend important medical appointments when they have no other means of getting there by themselves.

Club member Neville Willis has been driving people for over 20 years, and recently 3 new members have joined him, they are President Marty Alsford, President Elect Julie Irwin, and Rotarian Peter Morison.

They are seen here standing by the bus in which they all successfully drove to pass the required driving examination, the Volunteer Driver Assessment Test.
