Rotary Club of Scarborough
It is with great sadness that we advise that John Webster,
Scarborough Rotary Club member since 1970
and District Governor (1985 - 1986) has passed away
John has been ill for some time and despite his situation
was determined to try and get to our Changeover
and then to the 60th Anniversary on Sunday.
He was forced to cancel right at the last moment on both occasions.

One day, at the horse track...
A jockey is about to enter a race on a new horse.
The horse's trainer meets him before the race and says,
"All you have to remember with this horse
is that every time you approach a jump,
you have to shout, 'ALLEY OOP!' really loudly in the horse's ear.
Providing you do that, you'll be fine."
The jockey thinks the trainer is mad
but promises to shout the command.
The race begins and they approach the first hurdle.
The jockey ignores the trainer's ridiculous advice
and the horse crashes straight through the center of the jump.
They carry on and approach the second hurdle.
The jockey, somewhat embarrassed, whispers
"Alley Oop" into the horse's ear.
The same thing happens -
the horse crashes straight through the center of the jump.
At the third hurdle, the jockey thinks,
"It's no good, I'll have to do it,"
and screams at the top of his lungs,
"ALLEY OOP!” into the horse’s ear.
Sure enough, the horse sails over the jump with no problems.
This continues for the rest of the race,
but due to the earlier problems the horse only finishes third.
The trainer is fuming and asks the jockey what went wrong.
The jockey replies,
"Nothing is wrong with me - it's this bloody horse.
What is he - deaf or something?"
The trainer replies,
"Deaf? Deaf?! He's not deaf.
He's blind!"

Rio 2016 Olympic Games
South Sudan, the newest country to be recognized by the IOC,
will have their first-ever Olympic team competing this year in Rio.
It is a moment of great pride for the entire nation
and for South Sudanese athletes like Margret Rumat Rumat Hassan,
who now have the opportunity to compete
under their nation’s flag for the very first time.

Every time I open the fridge door . . .
Welby the pet wallaby shops in the fridge through all the veggies
