The Rotary Club of South Brisbane is hosting a Dinner with the proceeds from the evening going towards helping the Simigaun Community in Nepal, and in particular towards providing educational materials for its school - a very worthy cause.
The guest speaker is Cian O’Brolcháin who will give an enthralling presentation on his climb to the top of the world, at this dinner on Wednesday 22 February at the Broncos Leagues Club in Red Hill
Yes, he has been there.
Cian is a Director of World Sherpas - a company which arranges treks in the Himalaya and also helps those who wish to climb the mountains there, including Mt Everest. He is passionate in his desire to help the Himalayan Sherpa Community, especially the community of Simigaun Village. The Sherpas depend very much on tourism for their economy and because of COVID and travel restrictions their economy has been heavily hit in recent times.
Cian O’Brolchain is a former Irish tennis player. His trekking and climbing interests started at a very young age. Cian has climbing and trekking experience in the Rockies, Andes, Himalaya, the Alps, New Zealand, Australia, Indonesia, Central America, Scotland and throughout Ireland. His ascents include three 8,000 metre peaks (Mount Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu), Ama Dablam, Cholatse and first ascent of Beding Go.
Tickets are $110 and through the link on the attached brochure you can register and purchase them.
Would you please pass this email and flyer onto the Rotary Clubs in your Cluster.
Sincere thanks for your assistance.
