Volunteers are still needed for upcoming projects like the Rotary Youth Driver Awareness program. The club's annual Changeover Dinner will be held on June 30th at the Nedlands Golf Club. The club also provided an update on its upcoming Group Study Exchange trip to Germany and the inbound team from Fiji.
