PROTOCOL For All Workshops:

Please sign up soon for any workshop if  you plan to attend. This way the instructor will know how much material to have available for everyone during the workshop. As well as how many tables and chairs will be needed to set up.

However if you find that you signed up for the workshop, and find you cannot attend after all, it is important to let Linda know as soon as possible. She frequently has a waiting list, since there is a limit that has to be set. She buys materials accordingly so if someone does not show up, despite having signed up, that creates a problem. Someone else could have used that cancellation and supplies have been bought specifically for the workshop and now unable to be used since the workshop is already full and it is too late to be offered to someone else. 

SAW workshops are held on a WEDNESDAY at 1:00 pm at Grace United Church. (Note: if an exception to this should arise, the members will be notified). Emails are sent out to members before each workshop date to provide you with any necessary information. Workshops are usually held every two weeks, fall, winter and spring.

For you to sign up to each workshop send email to talktosaw@gmail.com

In the email subject line enter: Attention Linda.
