Rotary District 9810 Training Farmers Market Report

Assembly There were 35 stalls at Black Rock Farmers Market on
Saturday, the highest number of stall holders we have had
by a whisker.
Despite the fine weather conditions, visitor numbers were
again moderate and our proceeds from the gate were the
lowest we have had so far at Black Rock.
The market atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant as al-
ways. In line with visitor numbers, stall holder takings ap-

The District Training Assembly is an annual event
aimed at informing club office bearers of the lat-
est developments in Rotary in order to better pre-
pare for their role. It’s not just for new office
bearers. It’s an opportunity for the more experi-
enced Rotarians to share their experience in a
mutually supportive learning environment, aimed
at strengthening all our clubs. It’s also a great
opportunity for newer Rotarians to network and
learn more about the “bigger picture” of Rotary
and what happens beyond their club.
This year we’re offering a range of both role-
based and topic-based workshops. It promises
to be a dynamic day of learning and develop-
ment, so be sure to register early to secure your
workshop booking.
