Change of venue for June, July and September SVH Guild Meetings

The SVH Guild meetings for June, July and September will be held at the Birchwood Center. Phyllis Narus has arranged a room from 9:00AM - 2:00PM on the Saturdays the guild meets those months. 

There will be more information posted to the blog as the day for the meeting gets closer and the meeting reminder goes out (e.g. Birchwood Center address). 

As an agenda item for the June meeting please add a discussion on whether we want to consider not holding Summer meetings as attendance is much lower in the summer months. 

Carla Boudrot is the meeting chair for the June 15th meeting. The June program is Tablet Weaving (Chris Bidrim leading).
