Thank you so much to all those who emailed, wrote or called to generously offer their thanks, encouragement, stories and feedback in response to the personal opinions I shared last month regarding January 26. Some short comments on a huge and complex issue have sparked many a conversation within our community. However, in the glorious benefit of hindsight, I understand that I selected the wrong forum to share opinions that were my own, and not necessarily that of the Banksia Bulletin or the Quairading CRC Management Committee—and for that I do apologise.
Moving on forward; we’ve got a huge month ahead - right after we kick it off with a cheeky long weekend! We’re hosting a clay mug building workshop with visiting artist Kaitlyn Elsegood on Sunday 7th March - if you fancy yourself a DIYer, or just want to get your hands dirty, get in touch to book your spot! All details on page 13. Later that week (on Thursday 11th), we’re throwing a “Welcome to Town Sundowner” here at the CRC to help anyone who might be new-ish to our community to connect with others and with local info. Anyone newly living, working, playing, etc, whatever, in the area is very welcome to come along - as are all you friendly and knowledgeable long time locals. Plus, if you’re feeling like you already need some down time, our ‘Creative & Meditative’ afternoon with Janet Robertson from Nourishabley on Saturday 20th might be right up your alley! Shoutout to the new signage and window decals at the Quairading Co-op, I can see lovely fresh capsicums all the way across the street and I think it’s absolutely fantastic. I’m excited also to see the new road layouts with changes currently in progress all the way down Heal St - there’s some handy info and an update from the Shire on that project on page 29. Also! Big thanks for all the responses to the quick survey that you may have seen last week if you read the Banksia Bulletin online. Sometimes it can feel like we’re just typing out into the big void when we’re publishing the Passion Sheet and Banksia Bulletin week and month in, week and month out. We’re very happy to see lists of great ideas for content we can start creating and lots of “keep doing what you’re doings”, so that we shall! Bring on March. Jill.
