Let’s give a shoutout to 7K Distillery
We’re incredibly grateful to 7K Distillery for generously donating 2 bottles of their beautifully crafted, Tasmanian made gin as a prize in our upcoming Christmas raffle.
What makes their story even more impressive is the passion and craftsmanship behind the brand. Owner Tyler Clark built the still himself and has grown 7K into a business producing quality gin, spirits and whiskey right here in Tasmania.
Thank you, Tyler and his team, for supporting our local Christmas raffle, with tickets going on sale in November.
Please keep the support going by visiting 7K just up in New Norfolk where they have cellar door sales, tastings and tours of the facility.
Well done Sue
A MOMENT OF PRIDE FOR ROTARY CLUB OF HOWRAH!
We are incredibly proud and delighted to share that our “Peace & Social Cohesion Challenges in Tasmania” event has been awarded the Community Harmony Award 2026 at the Citizen of the Year Awards Ceremony, held at Ninja Stadium on 25 August 2026. 🏆
This recognition is much more than an award, it is recognition of a message we believe Tasmania needs to hear: that unity is stronger than division, understanding is stronger than misunderstanding, and our diversity is one of our greatest strengths.
The event was initiated by Rotarian Numan Rasul Nauman Rasul with the support of Past President Gayle Smith, and involvement of our wonderful Rotary members and community partners. What began as an idea became a powerful platform for bringing people together, encouraging meaningful conversations and celebrating the values of peace, inclusion, respect, understanding, belonging and social cohesion.
🤝 It was not simply an event, it was a message.
A message that regardless of our background, culture, faith, language or heritage, we can stand together as one community.
A message that peace begins with conversation, harmony grows through understanding, and stronger communities are built when we choose to listen, respect and support one another.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who helped turn this vision into reality, and especially to our valued community partners:
❤️ City of Clarence
❤️ Pizzarazzi Glebe Hill Pizzarazzi Howrah
❤️ Darcy's Cafe - The Taste of Pakistan
❤️ Spiceonwheels
❤️ Woolworths
Your generosity, encouragement and partnership helped make this initiative possible. We sincerely thank you for believing in the importance of community connection and harmony.
We also extend our heartfelt congratulations to Rotarian Bob Hardy, who was a finalist in the Senior Citizen of the Year category. It was wonderful to see Bob’s outstanding contribution to our community recognised on such a special occasion. 👏
Numan Rasul, Gayle Smith and Bob Hardy had the pleasure of representing Rotary Club of Howrah at the ceremony and received wonderful feedback about our peace event and the broader contribution Rotary is making to strengthen community connections.
This award belongs to all of us.
It belongs to every Rotarian who volunteered, every partner who supported us, every speaker and participant who shared their voice, and every member of our community who believes that peace, respect and unity can make Tasmania an even better place for everyone.
Thank you to our event panelists: Heather Chong Syeda Aimen Jafri , John Thorne, Pia Saturno, Grant Twining and Terry Sussmilch.
Let this recognition inspire us to do even more.
Let us continue to build bridges, not walls; create understanding, not division; and bring people together, not apart.
Congratulations to everyone involved, and thank you for continuing to Serve to Change Lives and make a positive difference in our community.
💙 Proud to be Rotarians.
🤝 Proud to serve our community.
🕊️ Proud to stand for peace, unity and harmony.
