Informal August Meeting Notes (from Sharon's Spin-in!)

Greetings all Fibre Enthusiasts, 

Yesterday 20 members met at Sharon's and the day was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Thanks Sharon for hosting us and a thanks to Darlene in July for the most memorable spin-in (how many more can we squeeze on this porch)! Both events have allowed us to chat with one another while producing at the same time. Below are notes from the informal meeting. Look WAY down and find the rosters for BOTH fairs. Please check your calendars and let me know what shifts you can help with so that I can send out a revised schedule prior to the IPE! THANKS (a big thank you) to all in advance. 

Hoping to hear the phone ring 250 832-9639 and the email box < mnikmo@shaw.ca > full of additional volunteers, Ann
