Billericay Mayflower Rotary runs several popular events in the town, most notable of which are Soapbox Derby, SummerFest and, of course, Billericay Christmas Market at the beginning of December.
Our President this year is Mark Chambers, who took over in July 2022. Please e-mail Ian Miller, the Club Secretary, for more information about the club. His e-mail address is secretary@mayflowerrotary.org
From the President
This is the first post-covid year that might be described as something approaching normal, and I am delighted to be Billericay Mayflower’s President for this exciting year.
Already we have staged a successful Soapbox Derby that was moved from its traditional May date to coincide with the Queen’s Jubilee in June. We ambitiously staged a MusicFest the day after, which celebrated the music across the seven decades of the Queen’s reign and was enjoyed by a crowd of revellers on the Queen Elizabeth II Field.
This year we are, of course, already planning Christmas Market at its traditional time of the first weekend in December – so book Sunday 4th December in your diaries for the usual stalls, stage acts, fun fair, Santa’s Parade and all the other attractions that marks the beginning of Billericay’s Christmas season.
We have also put our thinking caps on for Soapbox Derby and Billericay SummerFest, for dates during next summer. So look out for the information that will be coming out soon.
As ever, we look forward to seeing you at our events, where all of the money raised will be going to our good causes locally, nationally and internationally.
Mark Chambers
President, Billericay Mayflower Rotary.
