 Kevin, the (volunteer) Regional Manager for Camp Quality South provided an insight into the work of his organisation which caters for children, 5 to 16 years of age, who have been diagnosed with cancer; their siblings; and families. While their main focus is on the annual summer camp for between 30-40 children, they also organise a post-camp "reunion", provide training for their volunteers, and fund-raise. Kevin hopes that in the future their activity can expand to a winter camp. Kevins presentation was well received and attracted a lot of questions from members. |

Breast Cancer’s House and Garden Tour
To allow Cameron to prepare for his forthcoming role as President we require a volunteer to take over the task of maintaining the Duty Roster for club meetings. In the past a spreadsheet has been used but this is not essential (pen & paper would work just as well!). Main duties are to extend the roster each month; and email reminders to the duty team each week.
This week speakers from our associated High Schools will compete in the "4 Way Test Speech Contest.
