ROAD WHYZ

Each year the partner of the District Governor of Rotary District 9670 which stretches across NSW from Newcastle out to Bourke chooses a project that they advocate for the year and encourage clubs to donate to. Whilst the Road Whyz program at this stage does not support schools in the Dubbo area it is certainly a program worth encouraging.
The ROADWHYZ – ‘Choice and Consequence’ program is a joint initiative of NSW Police, ambulance officers from the NSW Ambulance Service and parents within the community. The program has been developed to assist drivers, in particular those young drivers from the age of 17 – 25 as this category is over represented in road trauma statistics. It is also aimed at Learner drivers and their parents with the aim to provide all involved with the tools, skills and knowledge needed to stay safe on our roads.

At the Club's Changeover in June the Club supported the cause with a $1000 donation.
