The Holland Festival,like so many ethnic- based festivals throughout Australia, is a tribute to the rich cultural heritages of the respective groups. It is also a tribute to the rich harmonious multi-cultural fabric of a forward- looking open society.
Well it’s been and gone…. And what a whirlwind in the end.
The Holland Festival 2019, came to fruition on the 16th March on a perfect Autumn day.
Over 100 volunteers were resplendent in their glowing orange Tee Shirts and we were very proud to be Casey Rotarians as the day unfolded. Along the way we made lasting friendships with some awesome members of a very proud Dutch Community. We strengthened our bonds with the two Rotaract Clubs in District 9820 and the local GSW A Scouts. We wish to thank our friends and family who chipped in with help and those from other Rotary Clubs.
Our club had a successful charity golf day, we are now looking for sponsors for next year, Peter Stilburn who co-ordinated the event will present a report to the club. Please see photos below from the event.
Members from our club, President Hakim Gassiep, Secretary Barry Erlenwein, Alf Reina and Ritesh Prasad visited the The Islamic Education and Awareness of Casey Association.
