Rotary Club of Portsmouth Family Open House

Last Sunday, 22nd of February, the Rotary Club of Portsmouth held their first Family Open House at P.A.Y.S., Purple Turtle. The Open House was to enable people of the community to learn what projects our club has done and working on and what our Rotary club stands for.

BBQ chicken and a large variety of side dishes and juices were offered to all attending.

A raffle was held with a prize of $100.00 EC which was won by a Cuban nurse working at the Portsmouth Hospital.

Music was provided by the Portsmouth band, "Heart Beat", who donated their time for our event and provided a great show which was enjoyed by everyone. The band also provided a limbo stick that was well tested by many Rotary members and guests, creating a very fun environment.

Rotarian Zoe and Arjun showed and helped the children to make very colourful and interesting face masks, materials provided by Rotarian Gregor.

Face painting was done by Rotary Friend Grethel Tavernier-Casrle, who also donated her wonderful talent.

Not only did the children enjoy this event but the adults did too.

The club also had a bouncy castle for the children to enjoy which was a great attraction.

Throughout the area of the event, posters signs were placed showing the projects the club has accomplished and ones still being worked on. The poster signs were done by Signs Plus of Portsmouth

The event was such a great success.
