And then there were none!

Fundraising
The club's stocks of the fabulous LightWalker walking sticks have now completely sold out, following a concerted sales effort by Glenferrie Rotarians. The generous gift bestowed by ex-Rotarian, the late Walter Glaser has raised almost $7,500, after expenses, all of which will go towards the clubs WASH project in Sierra Leone. The club received 519 of the walking sticks originally, 204 Telescopics and 315 Folding. Of these a total of 23 were written off, mainly due to battery leaks in the torches, 3 samples were given out as freebies and 493 were sold, of which 120 were sold at the Boroondara Farmers Market.
 
So many Glenferrie Rotarians chipped in to help sell LightWalker, through the Farmers Market, to friends, and into pharmacies and other retail outlets that it is not possible to name you all. A sincere thank you, however, for your superb efforts and endless goodwill, and hearty congratulations to you on your success. Sales through local Probus were highly successful when the walking sticks were demonstrated in person.
Big thanks to PP Jan Twite, Michael Hills, PP John Hudson and to Camberwell Probus member David Turner for your great work with Probus. Many customers came back for multiple repeat orders. A special thank you goes to sales champion extraordinaire Maria Pantling, who sold an extraordinary 236 LightWalker walking sticks, 200 of which went to pharmacy distributor Chempharm and 24 to Supply and Demand in Malvern Road, Hawthorn. Maria you are unbelievable! Thank you!
 
Future enquiries regarding LightWalker will be directed to Chempharm, based in Moorabbin, Ph. (03) 9553 5775. Walter was a member of the Rotary Club of Moorabbin. He would have been so pleased! Well done everyone, and thank you!
