Carla, Connie and her team have been planning and working to make sure the stage is set and ready to go. Now it’s time for the rest of us to pitch in and make it all happen. There are so many ways to help, it’s not hard to find one that matches your time and talents—from selling tickets, to baking cookies, to making items for the Country Store, to helping hang quilts. Please be sure to check the volunteer sign-up sheets at the meeting and make your choice. And don’t forget to enter your quilts—it’s so fun to see what we all have been creating. Susan
	Notice: The WEB Newsletter configuration will, from now on, be different from the distributed version. Included will be the sidebar bulletins, President's Message, Minutes of the Last Meeting, and important announcements only. There will be less contact information available online for privacy reasons. Patterns for Block of the Month, and Comfort Quilts will be found on the "Projects and Patterns" page. Patterns will be left on-line for a minimum of three months, but might be removed after that time. The webmaster will appreciate suggestions and/or corrections while we are getting this website up and running again. Linda Henderson cougaridge@cableone.net

	We still have room for people to sign up for Rose Hughes “Dream Landscape” class to be held in June. This is a two day class held on Sat. and Sun., June 26th and 27th. Probably from 9am to 4pm. Cost will be $125.00 to cover estimated expenses (if fees collected are greater than actual expenses a rebate will be given to each student.) Contact Nanda Lamb if you have any questions. We are very lucky to have Rose here in our valley to do a class, remember, she will be going to the Sister’s Show this summer. Lets show our support to the guild for getting such a talented instructor for our guild. Non guild members can sign up now also.
