Clean water is one of the aims of Rotary. In this driest of states in the driest country, club members and friends visited the Desalination Plant in Lonsdale to see just how our water supply is coping with our prolonged summer.

A few club members assisted at the Bunnings Mother's Day event, demonstrating wood burning to parents, guiding children with various crafts and enjoying sausages and snacks that we didn't have to cook. Thank you Lions for your cooking efforts. Some of the children painted pots for seedlings, handprint bags and fridge magnets. 
The adults painted tiles and trivets for their Mums. A good evening and a chance to speak to local parents and show the Rotary badge.
