Join John Buttling Saturday 22 April, 11.00am at the Port Macquarie Library for a fun and engaging presentation.
Anyone aged 50 to 100 will relate to, smile, nod, feel proud and warm to this fireside chat featuring snapshots of the storybook of their lives past, present and future that acknowledge the valuable contribution to Australia by seniors and how they have adapted to the many changes in their lifetime.
The storyteller John Buttling is a multi award-winning wordsmith, five-time author and now a local, whose writing career encompassed marketing and corporate communications, media releases; writing/editing newsletters, ads for TV, radio & print; scriptwriting, tenders; also the meetings, events & incentive industries as practitioner, writer and lecturer; freelance journalism for influential media like The Sydney Morning Herald, national publications like the Financial Adviser and an international magazine Thinking Business.
Be intrigued. Be informed. Be entertained. Be there. Bring a friend to share this group tribute. But seats are limited so “Book ‘em Danno!”
