In mid-February Sam Bailey headed south to Singleton in the NSW Hunter Valley for his first speaking trip since breaking his leg in January. He spent two days speaking to various school groups, soldiers at Singleton School of Infantry and at the 90 Years of Rotary celebrations for Singleton's two Rotary clubs. Sam is pictured right with Lieutenant Colonel Andrew Lowe, Warrant Officer Class One David Welsh, Major Derrek Lush and Lieutenant James Horrigan after speaking on February 15 to about 120 soldiers at the base. Next morning he spoke to Year 11 and 12 students from Singleton High School and St Catherine's School. That night he was guest speaker at the town's two Rotary Club's celebrations of 90 years...the Rotary Club of Singleton has been operating for 70 years, the Singleton on Hunter Rotary Club for 20 years. The trip was organised by Gerard McMillan, Rotarian and general manager of Singleton RSC (Returned Servicemen's Club), and sponsored by the club, which brings an inspirational speaker to the town annually to speak to the town's Year 11 and 12 students.
