Well, I did it! The group was over 70 in number, about 2/3rds females, and very receptive to all the BCNA efforst to support women.
I hope it reaches out and am happy to do more talks now. This first one was the toughest I reckon.
I had a long look at our group photo before I left home and received strength from each one of you.
Yes Leonie, I wondered what it was about too, but had a bit of an idea. For anyone who doesn't know we are all f/b buddies so we can keep tabs on each other all th time instead of some of the time.
That first one is a bit of a hurdle but once you jump it then things get easier. I had my first session on Wednesday with the 2010 NSW Rural women's Gathering, Monday will be with the Mayor, then the CWA. Wednesday will be with the board of Riverboat Ruby committee - this is just week one in my "master plan" to turn Wentworth pink for the final two weeks in October and have a Mini-Field of Women at the wharf precinct on 31st October.
The Ruby is a 100 year old riverboat which will be active on the Darling and Murray rivers for the final weekend in October, so my brain can see her swathed in pink ladies and ribbons as she goes.
So far local community groups are very supportive and I am recruiting my "army" as I go.
Cheers .... Shirl
