Members Slot Our inimitable Di Goldsworthy 28 years ago I sold my business in Manukau City and planned early retirement. A week later I was approached by a Newmarket retailer asking if I was available to work 10 hours a week for three months to assist the Newmarket Business Association (NBA) to acquire some funding from Auckland Council to form a Mainstreet Programme. Just the sort of job I had in mind….. 28 years later I have retired! During my time in Newmarket I was fortunate to be invited to join Newmarket Rotary (1997). My first committee was Environment, where I was privileged to work alongside such wonderful people as John Foote, Iain MacKenzie and Bob Stewart (to name a few). Newmarket Rotary & the NBA have strong links. In the early days ( mid 1940’s) NBA members used to close their businesses for 2 hours every Tuesday to attend their Rotary meeting. Bring back the “good old days”! Di Goldsworthy

A first for some time with last week’s luncheon meeting – no lunch. But President Dave was more than equal to the challenge and we all became honorary weight watchers, with nary a rumbling tummy during Dave Comery’s very impressive presentation to us.
