2022 A New Year

30/10/2021

2022 has begun with a lot of unwanted happenings in the public world of viruses, but we have to find a way not to become isolated and locked away from everyone.  Its not easy but it's important for our mental well-being to spend time with people and feel safe and valued.

The Fern Society has found a new meeting location for the first 6 months of 2022.  Not because we were unhappy with the Port Road location, but because the building has to undergo some unforeseen major repairs.  The Model T Ford Club has worked very hard to accommodate all of the hiring groups in the best possible way and they need to be complimented for all the hard work that has been put into sourcing a venue.  We met at the proposed location in the past week and have decided it is a good spot for us - it is bigger than the Model T Ford Clubrooms so the current requirement of 1 person per 4 square metres will allow us to have 50 people in attendance, there is ample parking, there is a kitchen we can use for providing tea, coffee etc and we are hoping that although for some of our regular attendees it is a little further to travel it will still be viable for them to come along.  The other change it has necessitated is a CHANGE OF MEETING DAY/NIGHT to the last Wednesday of the month which may even be better for some than a Friday night - we won't know until we get some feedback and see how attendance rates are.

Our first meeting will be held on Wednesday 23rd February (as the last Wednesday in January is a public holiday) at 7.30pm.  The display genus will be Platycerium and there will be a workshop run by Tate Hancox who joined the society in August 2021 and has a vast knowledge of a wide range of plant species and a love of Platyceriums.

We will hold our AGM on Wednesday 30th March and further details of that night will be posted in due time.  The January newsletter will be emailed and posted to members in the next week or two.

​Hope to see many of you on Wednesday 23rd February at 7.30pm.  Cheers Jill
