Feltwest Website – Calendar of Events
Our website is crucial to the running of our organisation – it deals with all our booking processes and communications. Please take the time to log in to your account (that you created when you became a member) and become familiar with each section of the menu. To log in please select the “Members Area” section and log in.
Our home page has our full calendar of all that is coming up, for example workshops, Toss n Tell, and any meetings. The calendar is made of events – it contains all the information relevant to that type of event. For example:
Toss n Tell – you find details about the guest speaker, demo, activity etc including a detailed schedule. It may also include things you need to bring.
Workshops – besides the usual blurb and tutor bio, dates, times and costs, there will be a booking link and importantly the date and time that bookings open.
Special Events – we may have special events like Exhibitions or Markets, again it will tell you the important details.
All of these events are mapped out the year before at our Planning Meeting in September
