We gather together on the lands of the traditional custodians, the Wurundjeri people. We pay our respects to all of Melbourne’s First Peoples, to their ancestors and Elders, and to our shared future together.

Our Club had its end of year function at Gracie Greco on Wednesday 11th December. The event was extremely well attended (38 out of 54 club members) and 19 non-members. It was a great venue and a full house. The food was delicious, and all dietary requirements were catered for.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
It was not possible for me to speak on the night, so I will take the opportunity now. I just want to say a huge “THANK YOU” to all members and partners for their support throughout the year on all the activities we have been involved with including our social events. I truly believe that the Fellowship in this club is the glue binding us all together and allowing us to do what we do.

President George,
Christmas and Festive Greetings to Yourself and all Camberwell Rotary Members.
Thank you for the bulletin, it is pleasant and interesting to read of CRC activities. The Club is so active assisting in many ventures.
 
I resigned from Rose Bay RC at end of last year as they changed their meeting venue, not nearly as convenient and were very quiet, only 16 members.
 
Best Regards to All,
Ian Feder
 
I look forward to seeing you all in the New Year on Wednesday 15th January at the Tower Hotel. Naturally an invite will be sent to all closer to the time.
 
Let the Magic of Rotary continue to Create Hope in our Communities and the World!

Dear George and everyone at the Rotary Club of Camberwell,

Now that Denis has begun his journey in tertiary education, we wanted to take the opportunity to share more about him and his family. Attached is a file with information that will help you get to know him better.

We look forward to keeping you updated on Denis’s progress throughout his tertiary journey. We will be sharing with you his letters and photos, personal reflection, personalized updates, and university results along the way.

Please know that you are always welcome to write to Denis, and we would be happy to pass along your letters to him.

Again, we wish you a joyous Christmas and a prosperous New Year!

Warm regards,
Salome,

Camp Getaway Working Bee - 28th Feb 25 – 2 Mar 25
 
Camp Getaway provides a quality recreational camp experience for people of all abilities. The target groups assisted at Camp Getaway are people with disabilities and special needs.
 
The Rotary Club of Camberwell has booked the dates above and we will again be assisted by our former member and now retired painter – Andy Spry.
Thousands of voluntary hours have gone into redeveloping the site, which now includes self-contained units with full disabled facilities, modern dormitories and many other improvements.
 
This working bee at Camp Getaway is a weekend away and provides a great opportunity for club fellowship. As there is always refurbishment and maintenance activities to be done this is a great hands-on Community project for our Club.
 
Further information to follow.
