top	Australian Masters Golf Parking In November each year Parking Rotarians and volunteers work as parking attendants at the Australian Masters Golf to raise funds. Around $5000 was raised this year and was used to purchase two Shelter Boxes.
top	Community Projects Garden maintenance and window cleaning at Abbeyfield House in Dingley Village is an annual event and is also a great social day where Rotarians, partners and friends come together to wash windows and chat to the residents.  This is then followed by a BBQ. It’s always a great day of fun. At a recent working bee the members of the Rotary Club of Dingley Village, together with their partners volunteered their services by rolling up their sleeves to lend a hand to the Abbeyfield Society in Dingley Village. Abbeyfield in Dingley Village is a purpose built, bed-sit style accommodation home for older residents. Abbeyfield has accommodation for 10 residents and provides home cooked meals and a homely atmosphere. Rotary Club President Alistair Law said ‘Our members and partners look forward to this annual working bee as a means of connecting with local residents. We wash windows inside and out and clean gutters’. Alistair went on to say that ‘you would think these jobs would be a chore but our members actually have fun. We also get a chance to chat with the residents at Abbeyfield.’
top	Senior Citizen Awards Each week a Rotarian from our club visits a Dingley Village senior citizen for a cup of tea, a chat and to make a presentation on behalf of our club.
