Our shortest newsletter ever (except for the bit at the end...)

Hi Sheddies,
 
Sorry we've been a bit busy and we haven't updated you for a few weeks. Please remember if you are getting this twice it's because you are receiving our member only email and our public email. You can unsubscribe at the bottom of the page if you only want one. Please email us directly if you don't want member emails anymore :-) 


There are still spots for tomorrow's taught beginners workshops in guitar, singing and ukulele. 


There is just one spot left for each of the beginners workshops in Mosiacs for the 3rd and 24th April. Then we will be moving onto the next project. 


Calling all writers - do you have something interesting you would like to share with our members? A funny joke? Some good advice? A great recipe? If you have something you would be happy for us to publish on our website, please send it into us.  No promotional or political articles please.




Enjoy your weekend!

Member Survey
The survey is open to non-members and members and can be accessed here . https://www.thewomensshed.org/2020-survey.html
 
 
Keeping up with what's on

• Don't rely on facebook - it takes a long time to get all the activities on and up to date. Facebook is our way of showing non members what we do, and we don't always have the time to keep it up to date. Facebook wants us to pay them to show you our info, and that makes Nell grumpy ;-)
• Newsletter - when we have time- we have had good feedback about the newsletter - but it takes a while to put together (about 3 hours!!) . We will try our best ;-)
• Website - if it's up for general booking, it's available on the website. 
• Our Band App is private only to members, includes a calendar and you can ask questions about what's coming up. It works well on phones and tablets. You can also contact other members via the chat option.

 
HELP needed! 

• If you have skills in Facebook or Instagram, we would love some help - especially in making sure our Facebook events are setup to match the calendar.
• Touch Footy Coordinator - we are looking at putting a team together for next season (SepOctober) we might organise some meetups during winter to up our fitness and learn some of the rules!
• Legal guidance - as our projects get bigger we are asked to sign contracts and agreements - are you someone that has the right skill set?
• Fundraisers-can you teach us some inside tips on how to fund the Women's Shed? Or do you have the connections to run a one-off fundraiser? Any other ideas?
• PR and Marketing - Help us get the word out about the Women's Shed.
• Admin - if you have a home computer and internet we can find something for you to do!!
