Our club again enjoyed a youth and international flavoured theme this week when we heard about the week of our Exchange student, Ella, and were visited by her parent, Carola and Sascha, and sister, Emma. We also heard an enlightening account from Samuel Hubbard, grandson of PP Pat Lewis and wife Olwyn, of his early experiences in his study of Medicine.

A great variety of craft beers were available to sample, and sample we did! Then off to a sumptuous meal at the Kincumber Hotel. A wonderful evening with loads of good craic.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to us!! Recently our club celebrated our 50th Birthday and the granting of our club charter from the Rotary Club of Woy Woy on 20th January 1976 and subsequent first meeting on February 26 1976.

At this week's meeting our club hosted an outstanding young woman and athlete, Ashley Pernecker. Ashley is the granddaughter of PP Robert Meyer and wife, Wendy. She began her love affair with athletics, particularly running, at age 8 and has excelled ever since, spurred on by her coach, Tom Ristuccia and her own belief and determination. Through success at Region, State and Australian Championships, Ashley was selected in the Australian Under 23 team for the Oceanic Cup in Tonga last year where she was placed 1st in the 800 meters and the 400 meters hurdles, and 2nd in the 400 meters. A brilliant effort from a brilliant young woman. Congratulations Ashley!

Our club made a relaxed start to the new year at the home of PP Robert Meyer. Only problem was that we had to cook our own meal! The dish? A Mongolian BBQ pick your own ingredients and stir fry. A challenge for some but new skills were demonstrated.

It's very high up there and you can't see all the way back to Germany, but our Exchange Student, Ella, had the time of her life scaling Sydney's Harbour Bridge with her host father Paul and host sister Alaya as a birthday gift from our club. Fortunately it was a beautiful day providing memories she will never forget. Happy birthday Ella.
