    Default CANBERRA FORUM STAND - Any interest?

    Canberra Timber and Working with Wood Show is coming up 2nd to 4th September.

    There will once again be a Forum lounge
    However if we can get enough members to volunteer maybe this time we can turn it into a Forum Stand the same as in Melb, Syd & Bris.

    What we need:

    • A coordinator - to pull it all together
    • Members - to man the stand
    • A couple of hours of your time
    • Some enthusiasm

    What's in it for you:

    • FREE ENTRY - to the show each day you work on the stand
    • Meet other Members
    • Meet new people - Meet and talk to like minded people
    • Bit of fun - Has been described by others as fun, enjoyable, fulfilling

    Anyone interested in helping man the stand please put your name down here with a preferred time and day.

    If you want the job of coordinator please let it be known.
    Will mean a little bit of work but nothing much and there is help available from other coordinators. RufflyRustic - Brisbane, jmk89 - Sydney, Groggy - Melbourne.

    When (if) we get someone who wants to coordinate, a roster will be done and sent to volunteers if there are any.

    You have almost 2 mths to pull this together, lets see if Canberra can make it happen like Melb, Syd & Bris.

    Cheers - Neil

    Default Limited Knowledge but willing to help

    I only joined the forum at the Sydney show but I am more than happy to help if help is needed. I can do a Sat or Sun morning if that helps.
    I can also be available at short as I only live about 5 minutes away.
    I should point out that I am a rank amateur in woodworking, but I surf here all the time and can see the benefits of the forum.
    Cheers

    Only 2 months away get in quick.

    What better gift could a father have than a woodshow and let loose on wood n tools.

    It is a lot of fun.

    You only really need to chat about what you know about the forum. Say G'day and people just being friendly respond by saying G'day.

    I'm going to be over in WA still when the shows on otherwise I would be more than happy to help out. Best of luck with the show, pity I'm going to miss another one
    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.
