From Wagga Wollundry Rotary Club
| Guest Speakers - Manus Island, 23 years ago. |
|
Could it be only 23 years ago? David Benn, Colin Butt, Rick Priest, John Smith, Ken Cook and Jack Morgan of Kooringal Rotary about to go to Manus Island. |
|
David Benn introduced Ken Cook, Rick Priest & John Smith and their journey, taken along with Colin Butt and Jack Morgan of Kooringal Rotary, twenty-three years ago.
They went to Manus Island to complete a school building which had been started by other Rotarians and required the final securing of the building to act as a girls' dormitory.
Their voyage was from another era almost; fireworks in baggage and photo's of a group of younger men who struck a similarity with those we know but who seemed in some cases only half the men we know now.
