Service Above Self 1 Vol 2 Issue 56 Taupo Rotary Est 1957 10 March 2015 President’ Roundup Dave Blyth gave a very interesting and educational talk about Google and a brief history of his life before computers. Judging by the questions and feed back, Dave could have talked for another hour, but Mike Groome was waiting in the wings to update us on the Taupo/ Wellington flight service that we lose with Air New Zealand mid April this year. The main concern of our extended Rotary evening was Tom Orr getting home before dark. Tom’s smart new wheels have no lights! He obviously made it home in time. Congratulations to Expresso on a very successful Lake Taupo Across Duty Roster Thursday 19 March Hospitality: RoseMary Chrisp Sergeant: Chris Wallis Introduction: Graham Clayton Grace/PT: Bob Pettigrew the Lake swim! Numbers were up with 380 swimmers participating. Next week we have a very special guest joining us with Graham Hall, Toby Joll. Toby is one of only three young New Zealand cadets who will travel to Gallipoli for this year’s centenary with the NZ Defence Force in April. Toby was chosen for the trip due to being a shining example to others. So do hope you can all make it along next week.
