It’s close at the top of the Rotary Melbourne footy tipping competition, but we had a clear Round 12 winner, John Peberdy , who receives $100. John had tipped 81 winners at the end of Round 12, leading by the slimmest possible margin from Andrew Weeks on 80, followed by Will Abdo, Linda Holmes and Reg Smith on 79.
In honour of the late PP Peter McCall, the Canterbury Waverley group invite all members to a special sale of Peter's extensive personal book collection, available exclusively to fellow members. Peter and his wife Kaye had a lifelong love of literature — so much so that during Peter's time as Mayor, they donated his entire mayoral wage to purchasing books for local government schools.
Rotarians, we need your nominations. Let’s find an outstanding volunteer worthy of the Sir John Reid Community Service Award. We all hear about or come across dedicated volunteers who fly under the radar, who do not receive due recognition, despite years of unstinting effort.
Thank you to President Philip for last week's reflection on Wednesday 3 June 2026.
