It's not too late to join Jason, Therese and Charlotte Daddy and Rob and Lyn Fava at the 39th independence celebrations for the tiny nation of Kiribati.

The celebrations are taking place this Saturday (14th July) at 6pm at the Collingwood Town Hall.

A wonderful evening is planned to celebrate the unique Kiribati culture.

You can expect the following:

  • Traditional I-Kiribati Dancing
  • Island feast
  • Singing
  • Dancing
  • Hangi style pig 

This is a feast style event in the traditional way of Kiribati, so bring a dish to share at the banquet. BYO alcohol and finger food or snacks for your table.

Cost of entry is only $10.

It should be noted that the International Committees of our club, and a few other local Rotary clubs, are planning to focus on supporting Kiribati this year. The country consists of hundreds of islands in the Pacific Ocean spread over an area larger than the United States. Many of these islands are under threat of disappearing due to an increase in the sea level caused by global warming.

If you would like to attend the celebrations on Saturday please contact Jason Daddy.
