PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
It was wonderful to see so many at the February meeting We had fun and got lots
done Liz and Mona had a great St Patrickrsquos Day project for us to do We got the
budget approved for the year You got to see the pattern for the shirts we will be
doing in March to wear at SDP Conference And there were some very nice painted
projects in the ldquoShow amp Tellrdquo
I always enjoy the show and tell portion of the meeting I hope all of you who went
to the Las Vegas show will bring your projects to share at the March meeting Also
if you saw a particular project or teacher you would like us to have at one of our paint
-ins Please get the information to me or Karen so we can try to get it booked
At both the January and February meetings Mona asked for volunteers to host our
June pot luck This has always been a popular gathering for our group so please
consider hosting this event Contact Mona if you have questions
Wear your St Paddyrsquos green to the meeting Donrsquot forget to bring items for Tender
Life REMEMBER to ldquospring aheadrdquo The day before our meeting is the day to move
all your clocks ahead one hour ndash and you will not be driving to the meeting in the
dark
Do something nice for yourself this month and bring something you painted to show
at the meeting on March 10th
