Rotary Club of Western Endeavour Newsletter

The Rotary Club of Western Endeavour celebrates its 20 year anniversary in 2022.

In celebration, club members dined at the Royal Freshwater Yacht Club rooms overlooking the Swan River. Long term RCWE members, Laurie Dender and John Boxall, presented an overview of the club’s history and some insights into its diverse and vibrant membership.

RCWE takes pride in its contribution to local and international projects and the impact it has had on society in target areas.

Harry Nesbitt

Harry Nesbitt described his trek across the Kokoda Track at a meeting in April 2022 and presented some of the grief the Australian and Japanese soldiers went through during the 2nd World War. He met the last surviving Fuzzy Wussie Angels who saved so many lives.

Congratulations to our founding club members Laurie Dender and Geoff Ross.

Both have been with our club since its inception on 22 April 2002.

Happy 20th Anniversary for the Rotary Club of Western Endeavour, Laurie and Geoff

Two volunteers take a break from parking at Wanneroo Raceway

RCWE helps to park 4000 cars

RCWE members and friends volunteered to help park 4,000 vehicles at the Wanneroo Raceway on the weekend of 30 April and 01 May 2022. Led by Jane O'Leary and President Peter, cars were perfectly parked in rows during the morning. It was impossible to prevent mayhem at the completion of the event as all vehicles attempted to depart simultaneously but the carparks were vacated without any major upsets later in the evening. And the club raised $4000 to spend on community projects.
