CMHA Oxford and Operation Sharing are partnering up once again for the Writers Cafe, offering writing tips and helping with computer literacy.
WOODSTOCK - The Writers Cafe from Operation Sharing and CMHA Oxford is coming back next month with a new time after taking a summer break.
It will run every Wednesday from 1 to 3 pm at the CMHA office on Peel Street in Woodstock. Director of Print Media for Operation Sharing Eric Schmiedl explains why they changed the times on this.
"The program’s new time is to accommodate Wednesday morning staff meetings at the CMHA, said Eric Schmiedl, Operation Sharing’s Director of Print Media and Writers’ Cafe Coordinator. The program also runs in conjunction with Operation Sharing’s Extended Family Project, which links volunteers with people in need."
Schmiedl says the program is free and is available to everyone in the community.
“The program is open not only to the Operation Sharing and CMHA families but to the broader public as well.
The Writers’ Cafe focuses on various aspects related to writing, including the following:
· Facilitating writing on the computer (including computer literacy)
· Creative writing (this could include short stories, poems or books)
· Writing stories for Operation Sharing’s newsletter, Helping in Unity, and the Oxford Self Help newsletter.
