4 MALARIA VACCINE PROJECT NEWSLETTER ISSUE 4 ROTARY CHARITY RACE DAY On the 6th of October the Rotary Club of Surfers Paradise held its 16th annual charity race day. Over 300 people attended this gala occasion, which was held in the Events Centre at the Gold Coast Race Club, Aquis Park. The Surfers Paradise Rotary Club has previously supported our Project and on this occasion they graciously invited the Malaria Vaccine Project Committee to join with them in arranging the event. Our Committee accepted their invitation and a steering committee composed of Bill White and Bert Shenko from the Surfers Paradise Rotary Club and Regina Tucker, Laraine Brennan and Gerard Brennan from our Committee, was formed. Prizes were awarded for the best dressed male and female and the best hat. In addition, there was a fashion parade featuring beautiful creations by Liz Clift International Spring Collection. Every guest received a $25 gift voucher from Liz, which was appreciated by all the ladies. A live auction of several items was conducted together with a raffle with multi draws and exciting prizes. Our thanks to the sponsors who supported this event with the donation of items and prizes. Proceeds from the day will support the Malaria Vaccine Project and Rotary Drought Appeal. We are already in the planning stages for another Race day next year and look forward to working with Surfers Paradise Rotary Club again. Gerard and Laraine Brennan On the day the Events Centre was beautifully decked out and made a great impact on entry to the venue. The tables were nicely decorated and arranged in such a way that it was possible to view the local races from the room. A sit-down luncheon including scrumptious desserts was available from a buffet. For those wishing to have a closer view of the local races there was easy access to the lawns near the race track. There were also betting facilities available for those wishing to try their luck as well as television coverage of other racing programs. Many people took the opportunity to watch the incredible Winx win an exciting race at Flemington. The MC for the day was Ian Harvey who entertained the audience with his commentary and even performed magic tricks whilst keeping the program moving efficiently.

Gerard and Laraine Brennan Grandad was reminiscing about the good old days... "When I was a lad, my mother would send me down to the corner store with a dollar, and I'd come back with five pounds of potatoes, two loaves of bread, three pints of milk, a pound of cheese, a packet of tea, and half a dozen eggs. You can't do that now. Too many damn security cameras."
