Artisan Event Info

To all Wandin Rotary Members

I thought to get an online booking service so stall holders can apply. I thought to get this happening asap so we can get about 16 stall holders booked in for the first event being May 31^st Sunday 10am to 4pm.

So far I have created this. https://www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1554791

I am sending it to you all so you have some knowledge of how this will all work for us.

Tomorrow I will be asking all the schools to come along to our first event, then they can take pictures of the Huge Yarra Valley EEL and go back and think of a name to enter into the name competition.

So in May they can come and see the EEL and Nominate a Name. With 10 local schools each nominating a Name thereafter people can come along and bid on the name (put money in a jar at the event (I will set up an online bidding donation service) . https://www.trybooking.com/online-giving this can go viral.

The name with the most donations wins.

All Donations go to Wandin Rotary for ??????? Maybe the school who wins gets Something Special ???????

It would be nice to have a list of what the money goes to - so people will know what they are supporting.

Next job is to set up the "Wandin Rotary - Community Connections - Creative Artisans Village" committee & program which I will do when I get back from Yamba 24^th March.

Meanwhile, I will grow the eel, create a website / booking service / bidding service - for the WRCCCAV put the online activities into place so we can do some marketing and bring in people to help us with this event.

I have 2 hours Wed/Thur to work on this.

Best Regards

Jeanette Jensen
