Saffery Rotary Walk Stand

Two Rotary Clubs working together.


To celebrate the Club’s 100th year and the Saffery Rotary Walk’s 25th year, we added to the fun packed finish line of the walk by setting up a Rotary stand. The intention of the stand was to promote Rotary in Guernsey. The Rotary Club of Guernsey and Rotary Guernesiais teamed up to fill the stand with Rotary merchandise along with various picture boards celebrating the work of the two Clubs.

A succession of members from each Club manned the stand throughout the day. Also doing a stint on the stall was incoming District Governor, George Phillips, who had participated in the walk doing the leg from Bordeaux to the finish line with his wife, Maddy and their dog.

A special thanks needs to go to incoming President of Rotary Guernesiais, Helen Salisbury, for baking 96 cupcakes, which were scrumptious. Thanks also to Ali Barnett, Martin Ozanne and Andy Salisbury for creating the boards, Ali and Andy for the set up. A great day was had by all!
