PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE:
Do we have talent? Yes! Dottie McHugh led the way with her CRAFTS show, tell, and display. We were all amazed and delighted to see the skill and creativity of our members Sonia Lewis, Diana Rogers, Helen Scholten, and Darlene Hartman as they discussed their projects and the process of their creations. It was wonderful to hear of the family traditions and stories surrounding the things they made.
Our cheery atmosphere was provided not only by great company but by the bright red roses and valentines theme provided by Nancy Hagoosian and Anna Bolechowski. Your president prepared the luncheon from Helen Scholten's Santa Fe recipe. Louise Bachigalupi and her committee assembled it and made certain luncheon was served promptly. Many thanks to all for an inspiring day!
Our nominating committee will be meeting this month and their nominations will be posted at the March 17th Dinner Meeting at 6:00PM. We will hold a short business meeting at that time and anyone wishing to make a nomination from the floor may do so at this time.
Don't forget to call and RSVP for the dinner! See information below.
