We warmly invite you to the inaugural Alumni and Friends Lunch on Monday, 30 September 2024. This special event is a celebration of our rich history, the remarkable achievements of our alumni, and our exciting journey ahead.

Reconnect with fellow alumni, friends, and current club members over a delightful two-course meal in the elegant Edinburgh Room at The Brisbane Club. Enjoy a main course of Orecchiette pasta with beef cheek and truffle pecorino, followed by a delicious orange and almond cake with berries and Chantilly for dessert. As part of this memorable afternoon, each guest will receive a commemorative booklet detailing the rich 1923 - 2023 history, key achievements, and milestones of the Rotary Club of Brisbane.

We are honoured to have Past President Dan Adler as our guest speaker, who, along with past presidents and presenters, will provide a catch-up on the last 15 years, and focus on our vision for the future. Current club members, including our District Governor Elect Mark Williams, are especially eager to connect with alumni and friends, showing respect and appreciation for your contributions to our shared legacy. The District Governor Elect looks forward to meeting you all and discussing the club's exciting path forward.

We will feature a mini House of Friendship, showcasing a few of the current projects that are priorities for the club. This is an excellent opportunity to see firsthand the impact Rotary is making today, something we are only able to achieve due to the work and dedication of those that have come before us.

Guests are welcome to bring significant others or anyone who may not have attended a Rotary event before. This is a wonderful chance to introduce new friends to the Rotary community and share our mission and values.

Please note that dietary requirements can be catered for, and while the menu is thoughtfully planned, it may be subject to change.

Your presence will not only celebrate the past but also help shape the future of our vibrant community. Don’t miss out on this unique chance to be part of a day filled with inspiration, reflection, and forward-thinking.

We hope to see you there!

On behalf of the Rotary Club of Brisbane

Angela Murphy

President 2024-25
