About Parkwood Rotary Board 2024/25
(under construction please be patient.)
It is said there is a Rotary meeting being held someplace in the world every hour of every day.
If you attended one meeting per day, it would take nearly 80 years to visit all of the more than 34,500 Rotary clubs in the world, and by that time, no doubt, there would be thousands more new clubs to attend.
A Rotary year runs from July to June.
President
Ro Linton
I have been in Rotary for seven years and value the chance to make friends and work for the betterment of our local and wider world community. I am especially proud to have taken on the role of President this year.

Treasurer
David Bisiker
I joined Rotary in 1994 joining the Club of Leeton Central. Since then, I have been a member of 4 clubs and have held the position of Club President 2 times with my second Club Bomaderry and once with my current Club Parkwood. I have also been a Board member several times including Treasurer, Youth Director, Club Service Director and International Director.
I have held District positions including Assistant Governor twice and been part of the District Youth Exchange committee.
Secretary
Kate Bentley
I have been a proud and active member of the fabulous Rotary Club of Parkwood since 2021.
I joined at a time when I wanted to become more active in my local community. I have taken part in many worthwhile projects and have experienced the fulfillment that comes from giving back to the community- locally, nationally and internationally.
Activities are so diverse and all of them are for improving the world in which we live. A tall ask….but as a smaller club, we have made some significant contributions.
As a Rotarian, I have enjoyed great fellowship and made many remarkable friends.
I have recently joined the District Youth Exchange Committee as Inbound Coordinator for The Americas.
Currently my Club Board roles include President Elect and Club Secretary, and it is with great excitement that I am looking forward to being President of the Rotary Club of Parkwood from July 2025.

I have been a Parkwood Rotarian for 3 years and my focus is particularly on our region. What gives me a real buzz? - Working together to fundraise for our neighbouring communities and succeeding in making a difference!

Membership
Mary Bryant
I joined Rotary on 27th of February 2024. I have always been community minded and after retiring to the Gold Coast I felt the need to connect to a club , to throw myself into doing something for others. Rotary Parkwood was that for me . Rotary has given me the opportunity to work with some wonderful likeminded people in the roles of Bunnings BBQs , hospital auxiliary volunteers, and so much more. I can’t wait to see what the years ahead are going to bring for me . Rotary Parkwood is a wonderful thriving Club that I’m proud to be a member of.

I joined Rotary just last year and was drawn to the Parkwood Rotary Club because they are a group of like minded individuals who work collectively to make great change in my local community. I was also thrilled to discover that Parkwood Rotary are making significant contributions internationally. As the Public Relations Director I have had the pleasure of working on the club website, newsletters, Instagram and Facebook pages to inform the community where and how we are working for you.
