About 60 of them in fact at Scrappin’ Outback's 9th Wave Rock Scrapbooking Retreat..they were SO generous with their time and friendship and laughter and ideas...sorry no group photo to put here as I was too busy enjoying myself and laughing (oh and teaching...lol) to take any photos...
But also so generous with their giving for the Children of the Forest...look at this pile of stuff...it nearly filled up the back seat of my car coming home!
Thanks so much ladies...it is so greatly appreciated...There is everything from underwear and pencils to babies clothes and teenagers clothes....FABULOUS!I know people only found out about this in the week before the retreat and would have made a special effort to get something organised even though they live in the bush and not near any shops! And some that couldn't get something in time gave me money to buy something...Thank you!
Now I will just mortgage the house to pay for the postage...lol...Lissy
edited to add....postage is about $55 for 3kg...unless you are a registered charity...if anyone can help with a contact in a charity please let me know!
PS thanks for the response to my post asking for underwear...please email me on lis.cassey@bigpond.com if you need my address to post your knickers!

Hey Lis...maybe you could do a call-out for donations to help with the postage! How much do you think it will be?
Lis, I would be more than happy to pay for postage. I will deposit it into your account.
Such kind ladies! What a wonderful response you had too, but that's what the community spirit is like in Hyden and other areas of course - just awesome.
