Who remembers the Rotary Wagga Wagga Sunrise Garden & Leisure Festivals of the late 1990s and 2000s? 🌻🌳
What many people may not realise is that today's Rotary Wagga Wagga Sunrise Christmas Market is held at the very same venue, and some of the dedicated Rotarians who helped make those Garden & Leisure Festivals such a success are still actively involved today!
This newspaper photo from 2001 features event organiser John Wood and then Club President Marilyn Walter, who played key roles in delivering those wonderful community events. Decades later, their experience, passion and commitment continue to help our club create successful events that bring people together and support local charities.
The spirit of community service remains the same.💛💙
🎄 Join us this Sunday from 9:00am to 1:00pm
📍 Botanic Gardens, Macleay Street, Wagga Wagga
Enjoy market stalls, food, coffee, raffles, Christmas gifts and a great morning out with family and friends.
Every dollar raised helps support local children and family charities.
Come along, say hello to long-standing & newer members and be part of a community tradition that continues to grow!🎅🎁✨
