President's Message

Welcome to Altona City Rotary Club!
Welcome to our web page which contains a wealth of information for our members and for those who may be thinking of joining our exciting organisation.
 
This year (2022/23) Rotary's theme is "Imagine Rotary"
Such a relevant theme for this year as many people have had their wellbeing and livelihoods affected by the current health crisis. Rotarians can and do make a difference both locally and globally to people's lives.
 
Our club goals for this year include:
  • Encouraging and actively seeking to have a greater diversity of membership so that we can better reflect the community we serve;
  • Engage youth and develop programs that raise the profile of Rotary and benefit the community.
There is no greater satisfaction or reward than knowing you have made a difference to another person's life. You will also have the opportunity to use or develop leadership and communication skills for your own benefit.
 
Sounds like something you may be interested in? Please contact us to arrange a visit to our club, listen to our informative guest speakers and learn more about our organisation. I extend a warm invitation to you and you will be made very welcome to our club.
 
President Charlie Hommelhoff

Inaugural Altona CIty Rotary Citizenship Award
 
Past President Jan Douglas was delighted to present the inaugural Rotary Altona City Citizenship Award to Alex Gatt, a member of the inaugural Year 12 graduating class at Altona College. Congratulations Alex!
We look forward to further discussions with Altona College, in the new year, about potential interest in Earlyact, and a Pilot Mock Job Interview program.
Ladies, Back on Your Bike...
Altona City Rotary's cycling group conducted a bicycle safety lesson for members of the Vietnamese Association in Hobsons Bay. A great use for the Louis Joel Carpark, and a wonderful afternoon. Many of these women grew up riding bikes in Vietnam and came out to Australia in the 80s as boat people. Afterwards, a Vietnamese banquet was shared.
