The Manningham City Rotary Club proudly celebrates the 98th birthday of long-standing Rotarian Keith Woolnough.
A Rotarian for 65 years, Keith has exemplified “Service Above Self,” including his leadership in the Glenoura tree planting initiative alongside Wally Spinks, Landcare Australia, the Pajero Club of Victoria, the Rotary Club of Seymour South, and students from East Doncaster Secondary College.
Before Rotary, Keith enjoyed an outstanding football career with the Northcote ‘Dragons’ Football Club, playing 185games over a decade from 1947, the vice-captain of the VFL-VFA team in the demonstration match at the 1956 Summer Olympics, winning the prestigious J. J. Liston Trophy in 1958 (and trading elbows with my father, who played for Camberwell!)
The club warmly congratulates Keith on this remarkable milestone.
