Rotary Club of Canberra Burley Griffin News Notes - 1 February 2026
Welcome to 2026!
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas celebration and welcomed the New Year with gusto and positive vibes.
Many of us enjoyed Birthdays over the breaks. So, a belated very Happy Birthday greeting to our colleagues and friends:
Olek
Michael
Bill.
Coming up fast:
Russell
Ross today!
Eric
Happy Birthday and may we celebrate many more!
Those of you who may have had birthdays as well over the same period but are not mentioned please check you membership details in Club Runner as these details come from those records - if your birthday is not noted, we don't know when it is!
Thank you to all who came along to social lunches over the past 3 weeks. A good opportunity was taken up by many of us to chat about life, money, politics and the eternal question "Why?".
