Paul Harris Fellowships-David Pine and Nick Walmsley

Rhondda Sweetman from Plimmerton Rotary

President Denise Traill announced that she had the honour and privilege to award two Paul Harris Fellowships and called forward David Pine and Nick Walmsley in turn. DG Marilyn Stevens kindly presented the badges.
📷📷She congratulated David for almost thirty years of service and thanked him for his contributions to such events as the 4x4 Safari, the bookfairs, plantings, the garden tour, and for doing guest speaker write-ups for three years.
She offered congratulations to Nick for his service and thanked him for the contributions made in his year of the inaugural Graeme Press RYLA Award, the start of a new Whitby Probus Club and for receiving the District 9940 Public Image Award for the Teardrop Campaign, among others. Following his thanks, Nick suggested that Rotary International might take advantage of the message given at the Royal Coronation when King Charles III had emphasised service to the community.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
