The new office is open!!!
EXCITING times. John, Mama, my friend (and Office Manager) Alison and I spent the weekend ‘sprucing up’ the electoral office in Bulcock Street Caloundra.
Today, another friend of mine, Paul Morton from Red Dirt Photography (little plug in there) has put up a few signs, and tomorrow we will be officially open for business.
The office is on the Ground Floor of the Pumicestone Blue Resort, on the corner of Bulcock and Centaur Streets, Caloundra. (The phone number from Wednesday will be 5438 9000)
I have big plans. Mama is going to keep the scones running hot, there is great coffee just next door; I see music; lively discussion and the odd glass of sav blanc!
I’d love you to call in some time to grab a sticker, have a chat or just check on our progress. Everybody welcome, all the time.
On that note, thanks to everyone who responded to John’s call out for ‘stuff’ to fit out the office. We're just about done. In particular, thank you to Peter and Elaine Bryant who just about did the job single handedly. Carl Stockel is going to help us with some computers and I already mentioned what a trooper Paul Morton is (more on him later).
ONE of the major jobs facing our office is the logistical nightmare of staffing polling booths on election day. There are around 40 booths, from Sun City Bowl at Alexandra Headlands to Kilcoy State School. If you've registered at www.votecaroline.com.au you'll be contacted fairly soon about your availability on the day. In particular, it would be great if we had some people prepared to become ‘booth captains’ (a fantastic title which basically means you’d be prepared to organise and see through a roster for the day).
In return for your generosity I have nothing to offer other than the chance to rumble with a few fanatics who hurl abuse when you hold out a How to Vote card, a cold drink, my undying gratitude and the opportunity to be apart of long awaited change in Fisher. Think that sounds exciting? Me too.
WHAT we need? A hurry up at AGL / Energex to get the power on in Bulcock Street. I'm assured a smart sparky will know how to handle them. Contacts in Woodford and Kilcoy – anyone you know, who you think I should too, I’d really appreciate an email. More stickers on cars – if you aren’t seeing them around town, then neither is anyone else. They are available from Placemat Kitchenware Kawana Shoppingworld, Get Outside and Concept Tiles on the Nicklin Way, Mix FM Reception and now the campaign office of Caroline Hutchinson, Independent Candidate for the seat of Fisher. Of course, we can send you one too, just click on www.votecaroline.com.au
FINALLY I’ll leave you with some words of wisdom sent to me by Paul Morton. "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." (Margaret Mead)
