MCSA - Mobile Meet and website

1. Mobile Meet 2008

We are finalising the program and workshops for the Mobile Meet to be held in Wagga Wagga in early September 2008.

Registrations forms should be out in the first week of Term 3, 2008.

The NSW Department of Community Services [DOCS] has provided a subsidy, so this conference will be the best value going around. We have also asked the Federal Department of Employment, Education and Workplace Relations [DEEWR] to subsidies their Mobiles.

The full program means that participants travel on Tuesday 9th September - Registrations will be taken from 2pm. We provide dinner and an activities evening.

The next day, Wednesday 10th September, has the opening and keynote as well as the service type and regional meetings in the afternoon, folowed by the AGM and display companies.

Thursday 11th September is the full workshop day: 9am to 5pm, folowed by the Conference Dinner with the dress up theme of 'Carnivale'.

We ar expecting up to 60 Mobile Children's Services and 140 participants.

2. MCSA's website

MCSA has finally got its website up: www.mcsa.org.au

We have had some training on how to operate it ourselves. Slow going so far because we are very busy with organising Mobile Meet and doing all the things an organisation needs to do at change of financial year.

Please have a look at all of the headings and sub-headings. We hope to eventually have a space for each Mobile and a Google Map of base and venue locations.
