Dear Painters:
What a beautiful time of year. I love the changing seasons and the Thanksgiving Holiday meeting with family and friends to give thanks for our many blessings. This fall was especially beautiful. The colors were some of the most brilliant I have seen. It really feeds my appetite to paint.
We are looking forward to Judy Grahams Class and it is worth the wait to paint with her. If you don’t have your tin piece please contact Tirzah as soon as possible.
This month we get a bonus because we get to get together twice to paint. Cheri Ringgers’ Class with Santa Express will be a great addition to you Christmas decorations.
The Christmas Party this year will be at the Prairie Schooner, 11:00, on December 10th. The cost is only $5.00 and the Board has some fun things planned. The entrees will be Country Fried Steak, Marinated Prairie Chicken Breast, Grilled Pork Chop or Fish and Chips. Please let me know your entree choice no later than December 1st, 801 698-0418. Hope to see you there.
Remember that we need to get our Membership Dues for next year. The price is still $15.00
Please take note of the additions to the Standing Rules. (Go to 'By-laws/Standing Rules' and look for the red Italicized additions.) We will vote on these additions at the next paint-in.
I would like to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving.
Keep painting
Nancy
