On Friday night, 23rd July, a number of members met at the club rooms of TPDVWA (Totally and Partially Disabled Veterans of WA) for a social night. The club rooms had a great display of photos and military items which are very interesting. We played Darts and Pool and enjoyed a few low priced drinks and a burger. Needless to say, some members showed their (highly) competitive nature! All in all, a great night to meet, mix, mingle and share some fun.

THOUGHT FOR THE FORTNIGHT
Rotary Disaster Recovery Trust launches European Floods Appeal
The Rotary Disaster Recovery Trust has launched a Europe Floods Appeal, after July saw devastating flooding in multiple countries across the continent.
Caused by record rainfall, countries including Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands have been badly affected by some of the worst flooding for decades.
It is thought over 180 people have lost their lives, with hundreds still missing and tens of thousands more unable to return to their homes.
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has described the flooding as the “worst natural disaster” in a century.
Images published by The Atlantic(see following photographs from 'The Atlantic')show the harrowingly vast scale of the wreckage which has swept through the continent, with infrastructure, homes and communities destroyed.
In help and support of our neighbours and friends, the Rotary Disaster Recovery Trust has launched the following appeal.
