Re: Lend-a-Hand weekends: Dates for your diaries.
"Task crates" seems like a very good idea. Often in the past I have noticed that new members or people who don't come down regularly are hindered by the fact that they don't have the necessary tools/materials and don't know where to find them. This is another positive step forward in making FOTR more user-friendly for newer members and occasional workers.

Hi John, I like the term "occasional workers". Think it suits many of us!

Re: Lend-a-Hand weekends: Dates for your diaries.
May I suggest we move the next weekend to 17-18 Oct. I am not available next Sunday. I did do a turn as board member in charge last weekend, so it is now time for Kevin, Arno or Chris K.
Liesel, your suggestions are sound and refreshing as usual.
If only the members would come down. I see the expansion of our working member base as priority NUMBER ONE for the membership secretary. Phone them, involve them, find out why they don't come and what would make them come- in short, a survey followed by an action plan.
Over to you Liesel!
