Vice President-Seminars &
Paint-Ins
Happy New Year Everyone!
We have some special projects, seminars, and programs in the
works. As your new president, I am very excited about the Chapter
and the coming year. The Sandi Strecker seminar January 25th and
26th is filling up. Please contact me soon if you would like to sign
up for one or both days.
The Christmas Luncheon was so much fun. I would like to thank
Terri and her elves for planning a wonderful day. The gift exchange revealed some wonderful painted and hand made items.
And the ornament exchange was delightful. Almost all of the raffle
items went to members or someone we know; even my niece won –
but since she is a twin and her sister didn’t win, I may have to keep
custody for a while… Everyone attending received a hand painted
nametag. So we have NO EXCUSE for not wearing nametags at the
General Meetings.
The holidays are over and it’s time to pick up your brushes and start
painting. If you are short of ideas (due to holiday sugar overload),
there are lots of free patterns available from the SDP, Artist’s Club,
and Paintworks websites to get you started.
I look forward to seeing you at the meeting January 14th.

dish. Top with cheese and cheese cracker crumbs. Dot
with butter. Bake 350° for 40 minutes. Makes 6– servings

Apparently a mail station in CA left them
outside & they got wet.
Many CA addressees did not
