Rotary National Australia Day Event - 26th January
Through the National Australia Day Council, we have been given the opportunity to bring our Rotary Network together…our community partners, first responders, business and government friends, and most importantly, our community…to celebrate all that is Australian. The theme for Australia Day this year is:
Reflect, Respect, Celebrate. We’re all part of the story.
For 100 years Rotary in Australia has been bringing communities together. After our drought, bushfires and COVID-19, this is a wonderful opportunity to bring us together in a COVID-safe way and be part of one event that will inspire. Historically, bringing people together in a safe space to have a conversation has seen those conversations turn into actions.
Agenda
Essentially, its a two part event:
- A central broadcast will be live-streamed across Australia and to partners overseas, see https://events.humanitix.com/rotarydownunder_100_national_australia_day_event
- In addition, local groups of Clubs will celebrate both 100 years of Rotary Volunteering in Australia and Australia Day. Invitations to the event will be extended to Rotarians, their families and friends, past Rotarians and the broader community, including Multi-cultural and First Nation groups. Businesses and traders will have the opportunity to display, promote and sell their products. This includes:
- From 9am to noon join Rotary Clubs of Brighton, Brighton North and Glen Eira for a free sausage sizzle at the North Rd Foreshore Playground, Brighton! see https://www.facebook.com/groups/D9800discussion/permalink/10159001222028850/
