President’s Message

 November 2021

Well, ‘Tis the season’ is approaching far too quickly. When I look around and see all the wonderful Christmas projects that are available, my wish list grows longer and then reality sets in. How am I ever going to find the time to complete these for this year, knowing full well that by year end my UFO pile will have grown, with the expectation that they will be completed in time for next year!

The question most frequently asked by guild members is when are we going to resume our in person meetings. The response is critical to our Program Co-ordinator when scheduling our speakers for the remainder of our year. As a result, the executive decision is to continue with virtual meetings until the end of March and then, hopefully by our April meeting our comfort level of meeting in person will be supported by our guild members.

Our speaker this month is from Florida, one the benefits of our virtual meeting format. So, in closing I hope to see you at our meeting next week.

Janice Haluszka,

President
