Sherwood Sunrisers Club Visioning

The RC of Sherwood Sunrisers usually meets at 7am but decided on an evening session for their Club visioning event.  There was a bit of good natured banter flying around about meeting at night past their bedtime etc.

On my short journey to the venue, torrential rain descended.  So much fell within minutes that some roads became impassable.  One road was the bottom point of a suburban valley  and water was flowing down it more akin to a river.  Dustbins and Roadwork signs were floating downstream.  With caution, cars were passing across it and so I also risked it.  Not far from the junction, one car was stranded and it's passengers were climbing out onto its roof.

I arrived at the venue and opposite, in a pub car park, the water was up to window level.  I understand that people were trapped in the pub by the water.

Despite this, everyone expected at the Club Visioning session made it - all with a story to tell after battling through those conditions.

District Governor Nominee Rodger Summers led the Facilitation and the feedback from the Sunrisers said that it was a valuable and worthwhile exercise.
