The Rotary Club of Port Fairy has set the date and venue for its 2025 Xmas Party. The event is scheduled for Sunday 14th December 2025 at the Union Station Hotel in Woolsthorpe. Members, Friends and guest will be able to order directly, and pay for their meal and drinks, from the hotel menu but, in lieu of a Kris Kindle, this year attendees will be asked to donate a minimum of $5 which will go to a charitable cause. This year monies raised will be given to Foodshare in Warrnambool to help families struggling with household grocery items. The Board hopes that the final get-together for the Club in 2025 will be well attended. We look forward to seeing you there. In order to gauge numbers and confirm our reservation, please register for this event online using the link below. Harry Bracegirdle

Fire Safety in the Home
May 18, 2026
Rotary Club learns about fire safety in the home.
The guest speaker at its meeting on 18th May was Julie Owens from the CFA. Julie is a volunteer with 25 years’ experience in the CFA. Julie was formerly in the Warrnambool CFA but now is a member at the Wangoom CFA.
She provided a very informative presentation on general fire safety in the home. With emphasis on:
- People being the main cause of home fires.
- The main risks of fire at home are generally attributed to candles, cooking, BBQs, electric blankets, clothes dryers, power boards (that gather dust and can short), smoking, lithium batteries.
- Most home fires generally start in the kitchen or bedroom.
Julie outlined the limitations of fire extinguishers (small, home extinguishers generally only last for around 20 seconds and users are not familiar with their operation. She strongly advised every home at least having a fire blanket and demonstrated how to best use one.
Julie provided a few valuable brochures on fire safety for members to take home.
She was thanked by President, Graeme Cox, for her informative talk.
