Rotary at Whitley Lodge Fayre
To mark the Queen’s Jubilee year in 2012 a young curate from St Mary’s Church in Monkseaton was charged with coming up with an activity to mark the occasion and in combination with the local shopping precinct, known affectionately as the ‘Lodge’ the annual summer fayre was conceived.
Now in its sixth year, the event was just as successful this year as it was in previous years with an extensive host of stalls and activities. This included Whitley Lodge shops and traders, Whitley Lodge First School, Whitley Lodge Baptist Church, St Mary’s Monkseaton, Northumbria Police, live music and the Whitley Bay Street Pastors etc.
So, again in June 2017 our Rotary Club was back with its Coconut Shy and Splat the Rat, the latter involving trying to hit an artificial rat as it speedily emerged from a drainpipe!!
We had a perfect summer’s day and the visitors arrived in force exceeding everyone’s expectations.

Our club once again donated half of their takings to the ‘Lodge Fund’, which was to be used supporting the immediate local area around the ‘Lodge’.
