President Harley Smithson advises application can now be received for club's annual art scholarship. This is to help with tertiary education costs for 17-25 year-old students studying arts. They must be NZ citizens living in South Canterbury at the time of application.
“The fund was kicked-started with a donation of art work by renowned and once-resident artist, Clark Esplin. One painting was raffled and others were auctioned in November 2017.” Says Harley.
$2000 has been allocated for this next round. Upon agreement, this can be used towards course fees and related material costs incurred during 2018.
The successful applicant must be prepared to report formally to the club and agree to publicity.
An application form with criteria is downloadable from artscholarship.rotarytimnth.nz. Applications close 5:00pm 18th January 2018, and will be considered by the club committee.

Sue and Neil Dickson - Harley and Jennifer Smithson
Welcome to your new leadership role Harley Smithson and big thank you to Past President Neil Dickson and partners! These sentiments were expressed along with awarding of Paul Harris Fellowships and Honorary Memberships at our club's well attended change-over night 12 July 2018.
Our H2H is always a fun feature on our annual calendar, especially when watching the fancy dress turn-out. This year we counted 760 people of all ages crossing the finish line in a festival of colour. Combined with supporters, 1500-2000 people may have enjoyed the great morning out.
For the past three years we have deliberately coincided H2H with Children’s Day on Caroline Bay so children can continue their day with free amusement rides and other activities.
Members efforts, though still considerable, are made a little easier each year due to ongoing refinements. Thanks go to our charities, who also help-out, boosting volunteer numbers to ensure every street crossing is now manned – in return for a donation.
Our generous sponsors and supporters are also to be thanked for, promotions, sales, transport, street arrangements, funding and prizes
