back from "Down Under"

Susan Rack did not return from her trip to Australia empty handed. Though without a koala or kangaroo, she did have a banner from the Kings Cross Club of Sydney, Australia. The club graciously welcomed her to their weekly meeting and promised to send details of their very successful "dog event". "It was another example of the power of Rotary. It was a gift to travel half way around the world, and find myself readily welcomed and comfortable with -- not strangers, but family I had never met before." A big thanks to Kings Cross Rotary!

Installation of new members

On November 14th, Brookline Rotary had the joy of installing Jake and Laura Walters into Rotary. Laura had been an invited speaker several months ago, sharing her experience in an immigration relocation camp. She wowed us all and then both she and Jake joined us for our fall back pack event. Clearly they both already are familiar with "service above self"! Welcome Jake and Laura.

Volunteers Needed to feed hungry Brookline kids!

This year Brookline Rotary is pleased to partner with the Brookline Thrives in providing weekend meals to low income students in the Brookline schools. In addition to providing funding, we have made a commitment to provide volunteer hours to fill and distribute the food packs. To see what is needed and click for more.

Boston University Rotaract

Karen Jacobs, BU Professor and Rotaract Advisor, and Susan Rack, District Rotaract Liaison, joined Haley Cerretani, BU Rotaract President, for her first meeting of the year at Sargent College in October. There was a large turn-out for this first meeting and an ambitious calendar was announced by the Executive Committee beginning with this coming Sunday's Brookline Day. Both Rotaractors and BU Occupational Therapy student will be at the annual event to demonstrate proper back pack packing to families as a community service. Way to go, Rotaractors! and we wish Haley and her Executive team a great year.
