NEWS and ANNOUNCEMENTS:

PRESIDENT’S LETTER - JANUARY 2010 One of my new year’s resolutions is to get my President’s letters out in a timely fashion - one down - eleven to go!!! We had a great time with Bev last weekend. We did a lot of subtle shading on our leaves and flowers - Gail Anderson designs use a very soft palette. The mirrors turned out beautifully, and if anyone is interested, Mimi has a few extra surfaces to sell. There are still openings for the Jillybean Fitzhenry seminar February 6th and 7th . If you can’t do both days, we are taking registrations for a single day. The price for one day is $50, plus surface costs. The giraffe picture will be on Saturday, and the angel project on Sunday. Contact Mimi Hankins at 222-0612 if you’d like to sign up for one of the days (or both!!). We have a great program on March 6th being taught by Pat Egloff. The pictures online don’t do the peasant girl justice - she’s really beautiful. You can contact Laurel at 294-1454 to sign up. The surface and most paints are included in the cost, which is $25. The board is choosing a project for the Mary Jane Todd seminar, which will take place April 24th and 25th. She is a great teacher and does wonderful fruit and flower designs. On another note, it can be difficult keeping track when people pay for programs, seminars or memberships in cash. We strongly recommend that you pay for everything by check; this makes tracing payments so much easier. If you don’t have a checking account, we are requesting that you enclose your cash payment in an envelope, with your name and the purpose of the payment written on it. Both the seminar, program and membership chairs will have some blank envelopes for your convenience. See you all in February. Clare

Backup plans have worked out, so the Board will be discussing options for April. We will let everyone know as soon as something definite has been decided.

After discussion it was decided that each person should bring their own tablecloth to any extra (or non-CCDP) painting activity.
