Welcome to Central Blue Mountains Rotary.
To be entrusted with the leadership of this club is humbling and a little daunting. To be charged with building on the club’s successful 42-year history is a role I don’t take lightly.
We’re at a noteworthy point in our journey. Although we are a mid-size club, with almost 40 members, many of us are either working full time or simply require time for family, friends and life outside of Rotary. Our ability to serve our club, our community and our broader stakeholders is limited to the time, energy and resources we are able to bring.
As incoming president of this remarkable club, I aim to lead and support us toward mutual achievement: sharing responsibility and accountability through a portfolio approach, where everyone is involved and engaged in us achieving our goals.
What is most important to me for my presidency is that all club members enjoy the year. That we feel energised, appropriately challenged and have a shared sense of achievement from achieving our goals in supporting the community.
Together we will seek opportunities to mitigate food insecurity; improve mental health across our community; help develop our young people; and empower international communities to prosper.
We have a wonderful Rotary Theme for the year in Rotary Connects the World. We will achieve this with drive, grace and good humour!
Justine Murphy
2019-20 President
