Sunday 22 July 2012

Save the dates

Dear members,

Potatoes are enjoying the garden:

Here is a summary of our forthcoming activities (administrative, garden and others) and the dates to save in  your agenda. The most important one is probably the Sunday 25th of November 2012. We'll not only hold the General Meeting to decide of our future, but we'll have another great fun community day, probably involving more music and a fun night and a photo competition.

SAVE THE DATES
I also draw your attention on 4 important dates on the calendar below (on top of the weekly working bees):

  • Next Sunday 29th of July, we'll set up a cold frame, worm farm and prepare some seedlings to plant soon.
  • On the 9th of September, we'll have a bus tour to visit other community and kitchen garden in the Illawarra. Details to be confirmed soon, but register your interest (by answering yes to the calendar invite you ll soon receive).
  • On the Monday 1st of October (public and school holiday) we'll organise (if council approves) a fundraising day at Bald Hill with cakes and crepes.
  • On the 27th of October, we'll hold a PechaKucha night(20 slides in 10 mins about any subject, give you an opportunity to communicate experiences, ideas and things you are passionate about).
Please answer this survey (link here) to express your ideas and opinions on the future of the association. We'll use the results to draft the 'Manifesto' to be approved at our general meeting. 
But before then, feel free to come to the monthly bureau meetings, to suggest idea, comments, react, propose and help (watering the plant, drawing plant signs names, discussing the plants to put on the terrace, leaflets in letter box.....from little things big things grow).
