2nd July 2018 Rotary Caravan Restoration

The Rotary Caravan has received a facelift. We have all seen the caravan in the main street being used as the venue for street stalls and cake stalls for the towns schools and community groups. While the caravan belongs to the Temora Rotary Club, it is registered, housed and insured by the Temora Shire Council. A few months ago, members began discussions regarding the condition of the caravan and it was decided that a good clean up, inside and out, was required as well as some new signage to ensure that the town knew the caravan belonged to the Rotary Club.

Now that all of the work is complete we must thank those people who worked hard to complete this project in record time. Ross Atkinson for the initial design and organisation. Malcolm Retallack and Rob Hartwig who were the driving force and provided most of the manual labour. These two hard workers steam cleaned the outside, twice, cleaned the inside, repaired the step, lights, wind down legs and took the van to the sign writers. Di Hartwig for painting the ceiling and providing sustenance to the hard working labourers. Finally, to our local contractors Irvine Signs who designed and installed the Rotary signage within our fast timeframes and Chris Schmidt who renovated the internal shelving to make it more practical for use.

We think the caravan looks fantastic and there is no doubt that when it is in the main street each Friday, everyone will know it belongs to Rotary.
