Saeng-il-chugha! Dhalasho Wacan! Happy Birthday!! Birthdays are celebrated from France, Korea, Somalia to Australia and all places in between. The significance here is the birth days. Our Rotary club had its 61st birthday on 22 April and we wanted to welcome newborn babies born in our community close to our club’s anniversary. Four local babies received a $50 bank account opened with Bendigo Bank. It’s great to have a bank account for children. Bendigo Bank has been helping communities for a long time now, and were co-sponsors with this. Last year we planted 60 trees with the help of Rotary Club West Ulverstone. In years to come, families will be able to have birthday parties under those trees in Bicentennial Park. It’s great to celebrate a birthday. I love the way Rotary’s local work covers from nursing homes to babies, and all points in between! So, a big welcome to these four new babies into our community. May you and your families have long happy healthy lives. And don’t you have a great place to grow up in!
