The
Rotary Club of Kew on Yarra currently
has 24 members, coming from a variety of
business and professional backgrounds.
The Club
was chartered by the Rotary Club of Kew
as the Rotary Club of Kew East in 1986
but subsequently changed its focus to
the part of Kew adjoining the River
Yarra. For this reason, we changed our
name to "Kew on Yarra" to recognise the
geographic area served by the Club. The
name also reflects that the Club's
meeting place is by the river, at the Amora Hotel in Bridge Road, Richmond.
Kew on
Yarra belongs to the "Yarra Cluster" of
clubs, which also includes the Rotary
clubs of Kew, Hawthorn and Glenferrie.
Relations between the four Clubs have
always been close, supportive and
friendly. The Cluster collaborates on a
number of projects, including the
"Boroondara Paper", an annual event
involving a presentation by an eminent
person on an issue affecting the
Boroondara Community.
