Dear Members,
As of this writing we have 85 paid members. Did you notice the note on the back of the newsletter? See if you can interest a friend in NAGOPS this year.
Scholarship winners from June annual meeting are Marie Creson and Jean Thomas. We are looking forward to hearing how they use their scholarships to increase their skills.
Remember if you take a class from one of our newsletter shop advertisers you can receive $10 rebate from NAGOPS; you must save your receipt. Be sure to show your NAGOPS membership card to the shop when you pay for the class.
Sunshine cards will now be sent by Leslie Winchell. We thank Carol Dague who has been in charge of this service for many years. Carol has now moved to Nevada.
Service projects performed by the membership of NAGOPS will happily be announced and shared with our membership through the newsletter. Please submit your project, the beneficiaries, and the volunteer hours.
American Hero Quilts is one such project. Exhibiting our handwork is another example. Bibs for nursing homes etc.
Lakewood Library is the home a small display case belonging to Needle Arts Guild. We currently have a display of work by members of Moonlighters. November we have the privilege of displaying in the larger case as well as the small case. You are invited to display something in the Fall/ Christmas theme.
