2012 December Newsletter

Hello Painters,


I hope everyone had a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Time is moving so fast it will soon be Christmas.  But, before Christmas come join us at our annual Christmas party on the 8th of December for fun and games, good food, and good friends. I hope to see you there.

As the year comes to a close, I want to thank the Board and the Chapter members for their participation in making this Chapter a success. We had two great seminars and wonderful teachers all through the year. It was all possible because of each and everyone of you. Thank You!

Lets make 2013 just as great as 2012 by participating in our scheduled programs next year.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

God Bless,

Lydia

2013 Paint-ins
The Board would like some input from the Chapter members about next year's Paint-ins and fall Seminar. What kind and style of projects would you like to paint? Who would you like as teachers? Would you willing to teach a class and if so, what would you teach? Please give this some serious thought. We are here for You. Contact any of the Board members with your ideas.



2012 Chapter Service Project
This year again, the Chapter will be continuing the Food Drive as our Community Service Project. Last year was very successful and we hope to do even better this year. Members are urged to bring items for the Food Bank to each Paint-in and Seminar they attend. (See our Food Bank Donations Guideline page for information on acceptable items or go the the Utah Food Bank web site for more information.) There is a lot of need, so we hope everyone will support this effort.
