Feature Speaker, Mrs Occah Seapaul, Incoming President Tara and her new board, specially invited guests, other Inner wheel members, friends. Good afternoon.  I am indeed honoured and humbled to have served as your President 2009-2010. We have had a good year not the best as I would have liked but nonetheless it was a good year filled with friendship and service to the community.  We were able to bring hope and help those less fortunate. Our service to the community included but not limited to Haiti’s donation $10,000, children needed medical surgeries abroad and donation to Rise Up Center   I am not one to make a lengthy speech so we have prepared a video to show my year in review. In closing, I would like to thank all the members who always responded to my call for assistance. I would like to make special mention of some members. To Vidya, P.P.Katy and P.P.Sita for rendering your home to host meetings. To all members who have assisted me in making my year a resounding success I am eternally grateful.

The meeting started at 3.30 p.m

President Florrie welcomed members and guests. She stated that since the Rotary Carnival Fete was being held the following weekend, she decided to move the meeting a week earlier. She was happy to see the members who made the effort to attend the meeting nonetheless.

A beautiful and inspiring invocation was done by P.P. Bianca.

Apologies: PP. Savi, P.P.Marina, Ursula, Sheila, Geeta and P.P. Ayesha

P.P. Bianca read the minutes and it was confirmed by P.P. Judith and seconded by P.P. Carolyn.

Haiti Donation
President Florrie updated members that she was trying to obtain a donation for Haiti and had approached several members. However, after giving it much thought she felt that Haiti needed a substantial contribution given their recent situation. As a result, she asked members to give their opinion on this matter. All members present were in agreement and it was decided that a $10,000 will be paid towards a Haiti fund and will be credited through the Rotary International Fund that was set up specifically for Haiti.

Correspondence
Our club received greetings from International Inner Wheel through board member Carole Young.. P.P Carole has been in contact with the Club and commented on the devastation of Haiti and how it has made us all reflect on our blessings. She also shared with the Club their celebrations in New Zealand for International Inner Wheel Day and wanted to hear more about our celebration for this day.

Additionally, P.P. Carole has indicated if we would like the International Incoming President for next year, Pallavi Shah to visit our country she will be more than happy to do so.
