GREAT ADEVENTURES: 2019 Dates To Save!

UPCOMING HIGHLIGHTS FROM OUR EVENTS OFFICER

Lots happening at Cannington Exhibition Centre & Showgrounds and for Canning Agricultural, Horticultural & Recreational Society, with the recent renovations in Liddelow Pavilion and surrounds setting the scene for the big year ahead of us. Lots of great events to enjoy, so hope to see you all at some of the following throughout the year, as well as other exciting announcements to come.

• You are all welcome to our Canning River Gardeners sessions, first Tuesday of each month. The upcoming 7 May meeting, we have a Bonsai specialist coming along to show us how they create and look after these beautiful plants. This is set to be very interesting, and is free entry, so get in touch with me if you would like to come along.

• Saturday 25 May sees our annual Road Trip set off, which this year will see a bus taking us to New Norcia. North east of Perth, this fascinating town is run by Monks, with an extensive list of Heritage buildings. It should prove to be a great day out for all who come. More info here on how to book your place!

• Saturday 6 July will see a Free Movie Night. Save the date for a fun night with family and friends. Plus it’s not just for members and friends of CAHRS, it will be free entry and everyone’s welcome. Watch this space for more details coming soon.

• The Canning Show Launch event will happen Saturday 3 August, which will have a different format this year, being a fundraiser for the Pink Ribbon Foundation and a collaboration with BW Backhouse & Associates’ The Professionals Real Estate, who are long-standing supporters of CAHRS.

• With several changes we’re excited to announce in due course, the Canning Show will happen Friday 1 and Saturday 2 November. Being the year of Indigenous Languages from around the world, we’ll be reflecting this throughout the Show and the Exhibition, so get your thinking hats on. Please also pass on details if you know any specific performers that would be perfect for this.

• Saturday 9 November will be our Canning Show Presentation Night, with all the accolades being dished out for the stars of the Exhibition. I am sure some of you are already working on pieces to enter in the show, so save the date, as the winner might just be you…

• And last but not least, we have all our regular groups continuing to run here at the Cannington Exhibition Centre & Showgrounds. These include Sewing Classes (starting in a few weeks!), Knitting social evenings, Machine Knitters morning sessions, Craft weekly get togethers etc. Generally free for members, please get involved, or contact me for more info!
