The Rotary club of Burnside were contacted to see if they could provide a BBQ for the opening of the Ambulance Station. Di Wilkins, City of Burnside councilor and Secretary of the Rotary club of Adelaide made the connection and John Caddy was quick to get it all organised. John had to find volunteers which was no easy task as the regular Fullarton Market BBQ was held on the 27th July 2024. However he did manage to form a team of willing volunteers.
John meticulously brought the event together with a minimum of fuss, thank you John, you are truly amazing!.
It was a big day and up to 500 sausages were quickly prepared to the long cue of hungry visitors. The event went from 1130 – 1330 so a lot of sausages in a short amount of time, well done team.
Di Wilkins was also a enthusiastic volunteer helping to hand out the food., thank you Di.
The Premier, The Hon Peter Malinauskas was there to officially open the Station. While he did not partake of a sausage he did comment on the hard work of the volunteers from the Rotary club of Burnside.
President Andrew hand his wife Nicky were there to cheer on the BBQ staff.
Thank you to all the volunteers on the day, a very busy time but rewarding. Thank you JC, Des, Brian Wall, John’s son James and Di Wilkins.
