1. For March only - the regular third Monday meeting night has been moved to Monday, March 26, 2012. (The fourth Monday.) 
2. If the parking lot at the Church is crowded, there is a parking lot across the street from the back entrance that we can use. There are other meetings scheduled at the church that night.
3. Sue will host the stitch-ins at her house on the first, second, and third Mondays in March. Those of us who go really appreciate the night out.
4. The Region seminar is in early May. We will be doing an opportunity basket. We get ½ the proceeds from our basket. The theme for the basket is "seasons". Sue Sizer will be putting the basket together for us. Sue will be accepting donations for the basket, such as threads, patterns, materials, that represent any of the four seasons. Get your donations to Sue in time for her to put the basket together.
5. We are participating in the Arts Fest, on Memorial Day weekend. We will be at Cascade Park, inside the Carousel. I will be looking for volunteers to help man the booth on Saturday and Sunday, May 26 & 27. We will have a small table, so we will not need a lot of items to display, but we will certainly put out anything we have. We will also have our postcards and brochures. More details as I get them.
6. The picnic will be the usual third Monday in June at Pearson Park. Jessie has "volunteered" to be in charge. More details to follow.
7. Don't forget that dues will be due by the end of May. Contact Jean to see what you owe since some get a reduction for selling tickets.
8. Remember when we sent Region 4 suggested correspondence courses? Well, none of ours was listed. If you are interested, the first is Beginning Hardanger.
