Activity program for CWA

Umina Country Women's Association has decided on a program of activities for the year ahead.

Following a suggestion by past president Ms Beryl Finch, the branch decided to knit squares to be made into a blanket to be donated to charity.

International officer Ms Jill Colwell said that she would attend the Association's study school on Timor Leste (East Timor) in Armidale.

The branch decided to invite a number of local primary schools to join the state Association's Country of Study competition on Timor Leste with entries to be judged in early August.

Umina CWA will continue to hold craft and friendship mornings from 9.30am every Wednesday, except the first Wednesday of the month when the general meeting is held.

The branch has also decided to start craft and friendship evenings every Monday night, from Monday, March 12, at 6pm in the branch's Umina rooms.

The first craft to be taught will be beginners' crochet at a cost of $20 for four lessons for non-members and for a gold coin donation from members.

The March meeting will be held on Wednesday, March 7, from 10am in the Umina rooms.
