We went over the notes from the AGM AOCB and noted that the code for the shed is 8891 and for the kitchen 1314

We discussed having the next meeting at The Shed (nb we aren’t and will be having it by zoom but could discuss whether to have the one after this on site)

Forthcoming Events

The Tracking workshop is next weekend. Penny told us that Dan has had a bereavement and might not be able to make it. This was the case and the event has been rearranged for September

The Archaeology event with Gavin Lindsay is on May 4th. Alison is co ordinating

POP Volunteers Meeting 23/03/22. Kirsty and Mel have already ascertained that the families would like more professional led sessions. Childcare is an issue for this unless we have family friendly sessions like we did a few years back around woodland play. These would need to be run on weekend days to meet the needs of families

Penny is attending the Networking meeting in Aberfoyle weekend of 22nd to 24th April

We talked about our target audience and the core topics that we might offer. Numeracy and Literacy being perennial favourites to offer in the outdoor context and we also talked about the importance of health and wellbeing and ecological issues
