    CENTRAL BLUE MOUNTAINS ROTARY CLUB INC. “Service above Self” District 9685, Australia A SHORT PRECIS (Who, What and Where !) WHO AND WHAT ARE WE ? Central Blue Mountains Rotary is one of five rotary Clubs located in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. We are innovative and progressive... we are a “Can Do” group of Rotarians, proud of what we achieve, and we have fun doing it. We are a club of 43 members (40 active and 3 honorary). In Rotary, women are the fastest growing membership segment and we are proud to say that 25% of our members are women. Our club meets weekly on Wednesday at the “Grandview Hotel”, 174 Great Western Highway, Wentworth Falls at 6.30pm. Our meeting format is relaxed and we have great guest speakers. Sure, we sell raffle tickets and we cook and sell sausage sandwiches just like other Rotary clubs - we have a big catering van to do this....It’s great! But our community service activities are the heart of what we do, ranging from local projects to helping communities overseas. We have a website http://centralbluerotary.org/ Perhaps our greatest challenge at present; We have been awarded a RAWCS Project Fund to raise A$280,000 to construct a new, enlarged Astha Home for Girls in Kathmandu, Nepal. The massive earthquake that struck Nepal in 2015 caused much upheaval to the lives of many people and destroyed or damaged many homes and buildings, especially in the hills and valleys outside of Kathmandu. The Astha Home for Girls is currently located in rented premises but the owner wants it back for his family members who lost their home in the earthquake.

  • Pdf June 2013
    The Mounts The Community Newsletter of Mount Wilson and Mount Irvine June 2013 Welcome There has been a keen sense of anticipation for the long-awaited release of The Great Gatsby, not only by local Mounts residents who were of course closely involved with the filming but seemingly across the world. One hundred and eleven residents and friends of Mt Wilson—a wonderful turn out—gathered at The Edge cinema in Katoomba last Sunday for a community event heroically organised by Judy Tribe. The general consensus of the film seemed to be one of pleasant surprise; it was certainly a technical triumph if computer graphics are of interest. The Bowens Creek Road debacle has taken a turn for the worse with the news that Hawkesbury Council has moved to begin the process of de-gazetting that road. This would have profound consequences for the three affected communities of Mt Wilson, Mt Irvine and Bilpin in the event of an emergency. The respective Progress Associations and Fire Brigades have been extremely active and vocal in lodging their concerns with the Council; the successful conclusion of this development would been greatly enhanced if individual residents could add their voice. Time is very tight— submissions close on 10th June—but a quick email or fax would reinforce the case. Hawkesbury Council’s engagement of the local community in this instance has been noticeable by its complete absence; a flurry of correspondence should remind them that the road's closure is a matter of major significance and importance to many people.
