Election results: Pat Thompson, President; Marlene Kleven, Vice President; Olga Hanson, Secretary; Joy Neal, Treasurer; Cindy Greenfield, Stars Hostess. Although not a voted position, we are looking for a Program Chair and Publicity Chair.
The board has changed our fiscal year to Jan-Dec and has decided to go year round programs rather than take off the Summer months. You will have a revised set of by-laws to approve in the near future. In the meantime, we will be collecting dues for the 2022 year. $35 per person, $45 for two members of the same family, 80 year olds are still free. No raffle tickets since we don't have a quilt to raffle off at this time. Be sure we have your correct email for notifications! Meetings will be via zoom at this time and we will be looking to include some on line classes in the future.
Print off the membership form to mail in with the check here. If you paid recently your payment will be credited to 2022 as we haven't been collecting dues for 2021.
Dates to Remember!
