2016 October Newsletter
Hi Painter,
Just a quick note for our President Pat who's street was hit by the tornado. She was evacuated for a couple of days because of the downed power lines on her driveway and the surrounding area. Her home seems to be fine, but her car was damaged, the yard is a mess, and many of the neighbors around her sustained a lot of damage. She says it will take some time to get back to normal.
We hope you’re all looking forward to Lois Mueller Seminar this month. Lois sent her finished Tine' and those who attended the Paint-in last week got a change to see it. The paints and patterns are also here. If you haven't gotten your Tine' and/or pattern, please contact Tirzah (801-825-2660). The prep work only involves base coating with Forest Green and applying the pattern.
Chapter elections will be taking place soon, so please give serious thought about serving as an officer for 2017.

2017 Paint-ins
The Board would like some input from the Chapter members about next year's Paint-ins and Seminars. 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.
This year the Chapter will again have a donation box for the Food Bank where people can drop in spare change or a dollar or two. You'd be surprised how quickly little bits can add up. There is a lot of need, so we hope everyone will support this effort.
