Concert in the Park Update:
Thankyou to all Rotarians who participated last Sunday at the Concert in the Park. For some, it was a long day with the stage arriving at 7.30am to a beautiful autumn morning.
After that, a lot of behind the scenes with collection of gazebos, chairs, barbeque setup, etc, thankyou.
Unfortunately the good weather did not last until the end of the concert, but did not seem to dampen the spirits of some hardy concert goers sheltering under the trees and being entertained by the Jive Bombers.
At the end there was a great team effort dismantling wet gazebos, clearing rubbish, returning gear. Thankyou.
A great club effort overall and one that certainly has raised the profile of Tawa Rotary.
Ian, Denise, Lyn and Elizabeth will have a debrief meeting to see what areas could be done better, differently etc, as they are keen to make this an annual event. Any thoughts or suggestions you might have, please share with them, remembering that the concept of the Concert was to make it simple, enjoyable and affordable for all families.
A lot of the prep work has been done for future concerts.
We estimated the attendance at about 1,000, which obviously thinned out when the heavens opened.
Great PR work by Ian, thankyou.
