Australia Day 2021Celebrating Australia Day 2021 was slightly different than previous years - different venue and reduced crowd, but still a great celebration!. We were delighted to recognise and congratulate Eaglehawk Rotary's Citizen of the Year - Eric Smith. Eric's amazing contribution to our community over many years is outstanding, congratulations Eric, such a well deserved honour. The day was a great example of how easily our club is adapting to the changes currently being experienced - well done to all members for your planning, re-planning and outcomes - we really are part of a great club and so very fortunate to be involved in such a great community. |
