Hello lovely community groups!
Now I’ve hopefully caught your attention with mention of fun and prizes (😉) I want to formally invite you all to a Networking night at Bunnings for all our groups to have a chance to chat and catch up, talk about how you survived through Covid, how things are going, what you have coming up, etc.
Bunnings will be putting on refreshments, and will be giving away a number of prizes at the end of the night as a way to celebrate making it through such an incredibly tough time for you all. It is our way to show our continued support of all our groups and a chance to support your fellow community groups too.
One or two representatives from each group are invited to come and participate, and if any groups are happy to give a quick talk on how they have be going over the last 12 months please let me know. Tables will be available for anyone wishing to display their group’s information, pamphlets, etc.
Attached is the invitation, please let me know as soon as you can if you are able to make it and how many of your group will be here so I can organise some delicious snacks 😊
Hopefully I will see you all in a couple of weeks!
We are almost back to normal booking for BBQ’s. We can now book up to 3 months in advance. Please send through any requests for a BBQ on your group’s letterhead with all contact details, and dates or days you would like in the coming months. HOWEVER we also have a lot of spaces open in the next few weeks that we would really love to fill! Please contact me ASAP if you are interested – the next month is blank! The option for cashless payments as well as cash payments will continue to be available for those groups who would like to take advantage of it. Those groups who can get the word out through friends and families are starting to do much better on the weekends. There is plenty of money to be made so jump on board😊
Kind Regards,
Kate Earl
