Auction Success!!

The last day in January brought sunshine and good luck to our Club. Our
Rotary Fun Day at Jessics Bar in Karsiyaka was not only a great opportunity
to raise awareness of Rotary and Rotary projects, but also to raise funds.
The proprietor of Jessics,
Mus, kindly donated 5 tl
from every Barbeque
meal to our funds, and
the raffle and bingo were
major contributors as
well. The biggest success of the day was the
mega Auction with many
travelling long distances to bid on the great range of new and nearly new
items donated. The day raised over
6625 tl for our Club, and also gained
some great publicity.

February: World Understanding Month

The month of February is very special in the Rotary calendar since it is designated World Understanding Month. The month also includes the anniversary of the first meeting of Rotary held on
February 23, 1905, now designated World Understanding and Peace Day.
World Understanding Month is a chance for every
club to pause, plan and promote the Fourth Avenue of Service-Rotary's continued quest for goodwill, peace and understanding among people of
the world.

At our meeting on January 28th, the Club was
delighted to welcome back two Past Presidents
who have been missed over the past few
months. IPP Rahmi told us about his experiences of meeting US Rotarians in Florida, and that
he was able to tell them about our Clubs
acheivements with pride. PP Ayhans road to
recovery from his quadruple bypass has led him
to the path of a healthy lifestyle with no smoking, less stress, and lots of healthy fish dinners!

Our Club featured on both Radio and Television
this month, with Rotarian Amanda appearing on
Bayrak Radio "The Main Event" show, and on
Bayrak TV "A Cup of Conversation" with Can Gazi. Both of these were excellent opportunities to
not only raise awareness of our Pub Fun Day on
January 31st, but to let people in North Cyprus
learn more about what our Club does locally and
Internationally.
We have had overwhelming positive feedback
