First Meeting 1st July

It hardly feels like there's been time to breathe since the launch and we're straight into the proper meeting.  All sorts of things to still sort out but time is short and job is full time!



Come along on Thursday.  We've got a whole new look at Etiquette, courtesy of William Hanson of The English Manner.  If you're of a gardening nature, bring along a packet of seeds to swap ( or a bundle of packets). 

Currently trying to work out the logistics of serving wine in non-licensed premises so any suggestions for that will be more than welcome. July meeting may have to resort to trip to wine bar at the end for those who are that way inclined.

Off now to purchase necessaries.  See you on Thursday...

And then it was all over....

Tuesday June 22nd has been and gone, and the launch went without too many hitches!  We had a great turnout for our first night.  30 new Next Generation ladies gathered at the wine bar for an evening of (for some) alcohol-fuelled enjoyment!  

The laughter man did exactly what it said on the tin, and made us laugh.  






We were belted and necklaced by our lovely accessories lady,
but sadly no kickboxing - another time perhaps. 




Our first fundraising efforts in the form of a raffle raised £29 so all in all, a great start I think.

Now, back to the drawing board to revamp the posters and flyers for the 1st 'proper meeting'.  If anyone can help putting leaflets through doors or can put up a poster at work, let me know.  wingskeynsham@hotmail.co.uk

The final countdown....


(Cue terrible 80s big hair rock music)

Only 4 days to go.   2 committee meetings in the last 2 weeks and committee is getting smaller.  I'm running through lists like a mad person, paranoid that I'm going to forget something really obvious.  All speakers are booked, timings confirmed, wine bar visited for the umpteenth time (pig of a job, but somebody has to do it).

Final bit of leafletting and terrifying poor female passers-by on the high street, and then I think there's nothing more to be done.

Relax and hope that loads of folk turn up on the night, speakers arrive on time, and everyone enjoys themselves.


Looking forward to meeting you on Tuesday - I'll be lurking somewhere with a glass of wine in my hand!
Cheers
