Interact Charter Night

A huge crowd attended (about 120) ...

... promising an absolutely wonderful night.

As usual, Daryl's fantastic MC skills got the night off to a great start, and he continued to do an outstanding job throughout proceedings.

President Steve also managed to get a few words in along the way.

Our first guest speakers, Tirrell & Caitlin, told us of their experiences with the Interact Club of Beaumaris.

And they were quickly followed by another wonderful address from Savindhi ...

... the Youth Coordinator for the Committee for Sri Lanka.

Then we got onto the most important aspects of the agenda, firstly presenting the Interact pin to the Charter President, Jessica.

Followed by the Board and the remaining Charter members.

And of course, the presentation of the Charter Certificate itself.

Which included the signatures of President Steve & DG Juliet (with PDG Denis making sure they spelled their names correctly).

The Rotary Club also handed over some other gifts, including this wonderful banner.

Then a quick photo opportunity, firstly with the Charter Board of the club.

And of course, the entire club.

MC Daryl then took us through a quick game of Heads & Tails.

And isn't it appropriate to see Cathy, Head of Senior School at Rowville Secondary College with her hands on her head.

The proceeds of the game were of course donated as the first monies raised by the new Interact Club of Rowville-Lysterfield.

Our final guest speaker was the inspirational Stephanie ...

... who talked to us again about her wonderful venture in Nepal, Blessed Life.

Finally, some very kind words of thanks from President Jessica & Vice President Meaghan ...

... before DG Juliet said a few more kind words, and President Steve closed the evening.

But without a doubt the night was first and foremost ...

... about these wonderful students ...

... and the amazing adventure ahead.

Congratulations to Charter Members of The Interact Club of Rowville-Lysterfield.
