We were very fortunate to be allowed to use the Market Square in the centre of Nottingham for the day and the weather was fantastic.With the help of an RI PR Grant we were able to provide gazebos and other Rotary equipment to show to the public what Rotary is about. This equipment is now available for use by clubs in other towns throughout the District.
The Tee shirts show the message!
There were hundreds of visitors during the day and we had 33 membership leads as well as 17 young people interested in Rotaract.
Entertainment by many from our various Rotary talent shows on the stage really brought the crowds in. Erewash Sound and local radio presenters gave a slick professional commentary on events during the day.
The Lord Mayor of Nottingham, Michael Wildgust and Lady Mayoress Carol, spent 2 hours with us and were intrigued by the dispalys and the sheer volume of things that we do both locally and internationally.
This was an impromptu performance by Community Chairman Sandra Morrey, International Chairman Gail Ashley and me showing that I can still high kick!
It was a wonderful day for Rotary and I am so proud of the team who pulled it all together.
