Last Saturday was officially the Launch of Wollundry Rotary's Saturday Markets, but this momentous occasion was primarily one for marketing to stallholders - there was no ceremony, it did not rate a mention on the day.
 
New colourful banners, corflutes, entry signs and teardrops were the main indications that change was about, and a bright sunny day provided a brilliant backdrop for all the finery.
The procedures and training for operating the market are well documented, and with a solid core of experienced team members, the set up was achieved well before the coffee vendor arrived on site. All of the available Rotary Marquees were assembled, and three of the WWCC tents were also pressed into service.
 
The team on the day consisted of:
OIC Michael Knight,Tim Barter, John Flynn, David Hodge, Adrian Whiting, Andrew Puckeridge, Tim McMullen, Paul Milde, Ken Taylor, Craig Bromley, Steve McCoy.
