INTERACT Important event. Michelle'e recent email on this..
As most of you know, Matamata College Interact's opening gala for the sports facility they have built at the College is from 3.30-5.30pm this Friday 3rd May. As their sponsoring club I am hoping that most Rotarians will pop in to show their support.
In addition, they have challenged us to a match. It was going to be 5-side but the court is laid out for 3x3 street basketball (so I have subsequently found out!) so we now require two teams of 3.
Currently I only have David H so urgently need 5 volunteers. Maz and Abigail, can you play?? The game is only for 5-10 minutes so major sporting prowess/serious fitness not required!!
If attending please wear name badges and a Rotary shirt if you can.
They have worked very hard on this project so please do your bit to support them.
Many thanks In Rotary
