  Message From Our Guild President  

Dear Guild Members,

As this hot summer is progressing, I wanted to keep ya'll informed of what we are working on this summer.  In the order  of when it is happending is:

     August 23 from 10:30 A.M. to 12:30 P.M. - Membership Tea

Rebecca Mullins, Cindy Moses and I have a plan in place for our Membership Tea.  Wanda Kirby and Joy Reidy have volunteered to do our centerpiece.  Thanks so much girls!  We have a tenative menu in place and I will be calling on some who expressed they wished to help with the Membership Tea during the survey we did at the April meeting.  If you have someone who you would like to officially invite, please either write or call me (587-1172).

     September 10 from 4:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M. - Celebrate Rose Center' s New Roof

This is an event the Board of Rose Center is planning to celebrate our new roof.  Have you seen it yet...........almost completed?  There will be more details for this event but the whole community is invited.  So mark your calendars.  There will be food, etc. at the back of Rose Center where the gazebo is.  As I receive the details I will keep you informed.

     October 22, 6:30 P.M. to 8:30 P.M.  - Mountain Makins Preview

Cindy Moses, Sherry Montegomery, Debbie Fulmer and I have had 5 meetings so far for the planning of Preview.  As we start back up in September we will get all of you on board with our plans, menu, decorations, etc.  Just know and rest in the fact that there is work in progress!

     December 3 & 4 (times still in planning stage)  - Christmas Open House & Crafts

Bridgette Williams, Bob Spirko, Beccy Hamm, Cindy Moses and I are the committee for this.  There will be crafters in the classrooms both nights which Beccy Hamm is responsible for.  We are also planning entertainment for Friday night and children's choirs on Saturday.  We are attempting to make this a fund raiser this year and possibly for future Open Houses.  A name change of this event is forthcoming.  We are opening up the Community Room to guild members who would like to sell a craft or other sellables.  There would be a charge of 10% of your earnings for the use of this room for the event for both Friday and Saturday.  We are planning a Gingerbread House Bake Sell in the Hall Noe Gallery in the alcove.  Workshops are being planned for this event to bake.  Bridgette Williams has come back from a summer trip to Germany with a cute idea of a heart shape necklace the children  could wear around their neck, made from gingerbread.  This is an item we are planning  on selling.

*****If you are interested in working with the children's events for Saturday, December 4 please let me know.  We want to make the Children's Touch Museum an activities center for the children to come and make decorated gingerbread cookies, ornaments, etc. for this fundraising event.  Please write or call and let me know if you are interested in helping with the children's events.

We are also wanting to give out samples of food items on Friday night of food served.  This will not be the typical hand out food event.  People will sample food items and then buy a quanity if they want.  A punch beverage will be served at this event, free.  Please keep an open mind about this event.  We want to assist Rose Center but we need funds to do so.  Let me hear your comments.

Sorry for being so lengthy but just wanted all of you to know of what we are planning.  Let me hear your comments and if you are interested in a booth for the Christmas Open House and Crafts.  Talk to me!!!!!!!!!!

Vicky
