Weekend Craft Retreat: Coming ASAP

Whilst events at Cannington Exhibition Centre are temporarily postponed due to COVID-19, Canning Agricultural, Horticultural & Recreational Society (CAHRS) is instead planning ways to strengthen and renew our Special Interest Group offerings, giving the public and members a ranged of reinvigorated options to be educated, inspired and have fun!

In light of this, coming soon to Fairbridge Village, Pinjarra, CAHRS is excited to announce a Weekend Craft Retreat. This escape will be bursting at the ‘seams’ with opportunities for all types of craft lovers, ranging from knitters to crocheters, sewers,  and various arts and crafters. Whilst learning, developing and sharing skills, this retreat enables you to have a ‘yarn’ in a social setting, and find new people you really ‘glue’ with.

All meals will be included enabling you to enjoy a weekend filled with creative workshops, outdoor excursions and plenty of social interaction with like-minded people. The total cost of the retreat is $160 per person.

We are currently seeking expressions of interest for a two-night escape to this historical village. Express your Interest by sending an email to laura@cahrs.com.au with the subject line “Craft Retreat”.

PLEASE NOTE: As we won’t know when it will be safe to go ahead and confirm these dates, and are operating with restricted staff hours, please be patient as you will likely not hear from us for a few months to come. Hang tight and we’ll be with you ASAP!

HORTICULTURAL FACILITATOR VACANCY

Canning Agricultural, Horticultural & Recreational Society (CAHRS) is currently seeking a plant guru to lead our Canning River Gardeners club.

We’re looking for a Green Thumb to share their love of gardening, know how to keep our plant friends happy and healthy, and enjoy a social, community-oriented environment. Experience with Garden Clubs or exhibiting at a Garden Show is desirable but not essential.

The position won’t start til classes reboot, which will only be when the current COVID-19 situation settles down and it’s deemed safe for both the facilitator and class members to participate. While working closely with our Events Officer, you will also assist with special outings and guest speakers for the group.

In return, on top of the stipend payment for participation in these community-focused events, you will also recieve CAHRS membership benefits and access to VIP events within our society.

  • Why do you want to lead our group, and what inspires you about gardening?
  • What experience or skills do you have relevant to the position?
  • Attach a few photos of your garden or plants/flowers you’ve grown
