Rotary Day 2009
On 23rd February, several Club members raised glasses of Buxton Spring Water in the Pavilion Garden's Conservatory to toast Rotary International's 104th Birthday. The venue was fitting as construction of Conservatory was contemporaneous with Rotary's formation in 1905. Also on display in the Conservatory for a week around that date was an A-Board showing a 'blow-up' of the 'Happy Birthday' notice the Club had placed in the Advertiser, with leaflets about the Club for passers-by to take.
A report appeared in the Buxton Advertiser
