Spencer Women's Lunch 2nd Birthday!What a vibrant and joyful community we live in! Friday 30th March was the second anniversary of the first 'women's lunch' held for and by Spencer gals. We gathered at the community hall and shared champagne, coffee and stories of our lives while planning and discussing the future of our eclectic little village and the upcoming 'Taste of Spencer' Festival to be held on the 20th May. A delightful ceremony was held to honour the happiness and sense of connection this group creates and we went on to feast on homemade and homegrown treats. And of course there was cake - it was a birthday party after all!We shared the day with some new guests...Deborah O' Neill (MP) commented on the dynamism of our group and how driving down to Spencer feels 'like a holiday'! Deborah also gave an inspiring speech about the power of women's groups and how together we are all edging ever closer to real and meaningful equality. We also had several members of the 'Status of Women' committee from Gosford Council attend and they spoke of the importance of women supporting each other. Special thanks was given to Eve Leeming who initiated the 'Women's Lunch' two years ago and really gives so much to the community of Spencer.
With all of this 'girl power' in the air it was truly an inspiring get together - we are looking forward to the next one!
Spencer Women's lunch is held on the last friday of each month from 12 midday at the Spencer Community Hall. Bring a plate to share.


The above is an article I just wrote for our community rag - Lucky was the extremely lucky token male at the gathering and even got to blow out the candles and cut the cake! It's amazing isn't it - I have been reading a 'witchy' book and wishing for more 'witchy poo' magic in my life and the sure enough - it turns up in Spencer!
