| A very credible result! |
This competition replaced the St Heliers Festival of previous years and instead of community stands up the main drag, the stands this year were along the waterfront and St Johns Rotary was again there to promote both the club and Rotary and ShelterBox. As in previous years, the ShelterBox display dragged in the families and provided the perfect opportunity to talk to them about Rotary and Beryl now has a list of names to spin her charm on and try and get some along to the club!

| Clearly the Rotarians needed a helping hand from more experienced sandcastle builders |
The members, including some of our newer members looked after the stand throughout the day but for some the lure of actually taking part in the sandcastle building was far too great ... maybe it brought back memories? ... under the guise of promoting Rotary of course.

This was another great day in the sun at the seaside and all enjoyed themselves.
Low Down
The display had the usual:
- Members wearing club shirts so clearly identifiable as Rotarians
- Plenty of handout material including club flyer, Rotary Down Under magazine, Rotary Today foldout info brochure
- Enquiry sheet to capture names for later follow up
- Shelterbox tent as a point of interest draw card
- Tear drop and pull up banners
- and more
