Young men come to the fore

By Jim Mynard
ROTARY Club of Berwick director of youth services Cr Mick Morland said the City of Casey provided a wide range of youth services for its large population of young people.
Cr Morland, who chaired the fourth City of Casey Rotary men’s mentor breakfast, said the function was designed to encourage young men to do their best.
Casey mayor Kevin Bradford said the council was interested in supporting activities such as the mentor breakfasts.
He said they provided valuable opportunity for students to discuss ideas with mentors.
“I thank the students and the mentors for their involvement,” he said.
Cr Morland thanked schools for supporting the event and the mentors who donated time and also sponsored students to the breakfast.
