Re: the vague plans for a Covid Conscious Sydney Halloween event
Hey everyone - apologies to disappoint anyone or ruin plans, but after almost 3 weeks of unresolved issues with their booking system, City of Sydney only finally approved on Friday the booking of the usual Darlington venue for Halloween (31st Oct) - however, as 1 person running this while juggling full time work, night classes, assignments to finish, ADHD assessment appts, tax return to do, among other things before the 31st (while of course recognising my privilege here as a non-disabled person) I’m a little exhausted by the idea of still needing to organise this event.
So, I’m thinking of just cancelling the booking, unless anyone reading this wants to organise something at the venue themselves that day? (Could be used for anything.) I could possibly still assist with some things (can offer my air purifier, some of the usual supplies I bring etc) but don’t want to commit to too much right now.
The booking is currently from 12pm-6pm (I’d planned to make the event 1.00-5.30pm to account for set up & pack up.)
If anyone wants to take over, let me know otherwise I’ll cancel the booking in the next few days. If multiple people are interested, I can put you in a group chat to organise. Feel free to message me or email [email protected]
Thanks & big apologies,
Liz
