Paul Harris Fellowships-David Pine and Nick Walmsley
President Denise Traill announced that she had the honour and privilege to award two Paul Harris Fellowships and called forward David Pine and Nick Walmsley in turn. DG Marilyn Stevens kindly presented the badges.
📷📷She congratulated David for almost thirty years of service and thanked him for his contributions to such events as the 4x4 Safari, the bookfairs, plantings, the garden tour, and for doing guest speaker write-ups for three years.
She offered congratulations to Nick for his service and thanked him for the contributions made in his year of the inaugural Graeme Press RYLA Award, the start of a new Whitby Probus Club and for receiving the District 9940 Public Image Award for the Teardrop Campaign, among others. Following his thanks, Nick suggested that Rotary International might take advantage of the message given at the Royal Coronation when King Charles III had emphasised service to the community.

Tap Fusion opens Wellington Fringe Festival
New Zealand’s home-grown Tap Dance show, Tap Fusion, will be opening the Wellington Fringe Festival at the Hannah Theatre this weekend. The show is a unique collaboration of New Zealand’s top Tap dancers performing alongside artists of Street Dance, Swing Dance and live musicians. This will be the first time a Tap show has been seen at the Fringe Festival.
Tap Fusion is the work of former New Zealand Dance Champion brothers Brandon and Cameron Carter-Chan. They say the show is designed to expose the diversity of New Zealand artists through Tap Dance by inspiring, uplifting, and promoting the idea of creative collaboration, encouraging people to work with artists outside their social circle, and to increase opportunity and strengthen the arts community as a whole.
Tap Fusion is on at The Hannah Theatre, 12 Cambridge Terrace, Wellington on 13th & 14th February.
