Annual BBQ for Our Elderly Friends

The A Team was out in force today to welcome our elderly friends for our much-loved annual BBQ.

Although we thought we had ordered perfect weather, the weather gods had other plans! Overnight, we lost one gazebo, and the wind kept us on our toes all morning and afternoon. Even when we nearly lost a second gazebo mid-BBQ, the team persevered. We managed to receive, seat, entertain, and feed our guests — just before the rain finally decided to join the party.

Despite these challenges, a wonderfully jolly day was had by all. We were also honoured to welcome our new President, President Dan, and Rotarian Tania, who not only acted as drivers but also joined in to chat with our friends and help as part of our service team. Rotarians John and Tony and Rotarian friend Vanessa completed our team of drivers, servers and for today only, gazebo protecters

Although we had to curtail our post-lunch socialising (thanks to rain and some runaway gazebos), our guests went home smiling and happily full of delicious BBQ treats.
