Twas'the night before Australia.....

Here's to a great send off party for the girls and Barry! About 40 Rotarians, family and friends joined team Oz on Sunday to hear their presentation and send them off on the trip of a lifetime! Their itinerary is now posted on the blog, so check it out on the right column and see where they will be and some photos of some of the sights! The team was encouraged by DG Stan Sherman, Don Chrisholm and Wayne Cole and Manish Mehta. Announcements about interviews for Japan in October 2009 were also made by new GSE chairs, Judy, Angie and Kim. I know there are a couple of alternates from this team that are completely intrigued by this country and their culture. Applications are due by March 15, 2009. So girls and Barry, Godspeed!
