Tonight we were tasked with helping to tidy up the supplies in the fund raising section of the loft and creating an inventory for raffle prizes/donations. First of all we had to divide into Spreadsheeters and Non-spreadsheeters! Those with IT skills set to work listing the inventory while those with a bit less IT skills begun sorting through the stationary and craft supplies. We think we came up with some logical yet novel categories. Everyone will know where to go now to find "Pegs + sticks" and "Feathers + Pom Poms + foam"! We look forward to planning our Rose Road session for next month where we will have finally made it back to lighter evenings!

Today I had to get my craft on helping at the Marwell Hotel Pancake day celebration which was in aid of Rose Road. There were lots of activities set up and myself and another volunteer was tasked with helping with different ones and keeping the supplies stocked up. I am very bad at making paper garlands, but can make a good chef hat! There were 130 people who joined so we were very busy keeping everything going. There were lots of happy crafters and everyone went home filled with pancakes too!
