NICHOLAS GREEN OAM The Victorian Olympic Council was founded on September 22, 1911 by representatives of Athletics, Swimming, Rowing and Tennis associations and the fi rst chairman was Mr B.J. Parkinson from Athletics. The Centenary marks a special occasion for the Council and was celebrated in November at an offi cial reception at Government House and the Centenary Gala Dinner hosted by the Olympians Club of Victoria. The Olympic movement is in its last year of preparation for the London 2012 Olympic Games. For the hundreds of athletes striving for gold at this year’s Games, the countdown is now truly on. The Australian Olympic Team is expected to have a complement of more than 400 athletes. Over the coming weeks athletes will battle it out for a spot on the Team, representing for some the President Nicholas Green OAM welcoming guests at the culmination of years of effort and focus.

There are large, impressive projects and statements, but also small endearing touches that seem to separate individual clubs and Rotary as an organisation that really cares for people. It's early days, I know... but as I move around the District, I have found that three things really stand out. First, are the strong and enduring friendships that are formed through Rotary membership. In many cases, Rotary seems to be a vehicle that 'fast tracks' friendship. Trust and a sense of involvement are encouraged and people of vastly different personalities become firm friends. Rotary seems to provide that opportunity better than DG Jim Studebaker & Carol anyone. Secondly, Rotary really does provide some opportunities that are not readily available or take many years to establish. Connections - social and business are encouraged and accessed between members. Mentoring - one of Rotary's great by-products – has undoubtedly changed and improved the lives of many members who have reached beyond perceived boundaries.

But behind this statistic lies a big challenge. We are now facing rapidly increasing rates of chronic illness, linked to unhealthy lifestyles. The future for many will be years of poor health and wellbeing. There are many social, economic and environmental issues that are compromising our ability to live healthy lives. Their impact is magnified amongst disadvantaged members of the community.

    For VFBV District Councils This list shows responses from Victorian State MPs to VFBV’s 11 June letter on the issue of presumptive legislation – the firefighters’ cancer law that would simplify the path to cancer compensation for Victorian volunteer and career firefighters. District Councils are encouraged to use this list as part of their planning to ensure that volunteers contact all State MPs in their area and seek their support on this important issue. See the VFBV website for more information on the issue, including a copy of our ‘Notes for MPs’ that volunteers can present to MPs. As at 22 August 2013; There has been strong support from the Greens, who have presented draft legislation to State Parliament, and in-principle support from Labor The Coalition Government has not committed to supporting presumptive legislation. VFBV is committed to working with all Victorian MPs to secure all-party support for fairer and simpler access to cancer compensation for Victorian volunteer and career firefighters and a part of that is having volunteers talk to their local MPs. See below for the response received from individual MPs, listed in alphabetical order. Please advise the VFBV office of any contacts made and responses from MPs. Name, Party and Electorate Have they replied to VFBV’s Summary of the MPs’ advice or actions letter of 11 June 2013? Jacinta Allan No Supportive: Yes.
