Meeting Minutes - August 16th, 2017


Guest Speaker

Joan Lloyd spoke to us about her project, Bling’s The Thing. She makes and donates earrings to battered women’s shelters and she holds workshops (for seniors, girl scouts, etc) to teach others how to make and donate them. Joan is holding such a workshop at the Hart Library on August 28 starting at 6:00PM. She said that she finds this activity rewarding as do those who participate in the workshop. Joan has a Facebook page, Bling’s The Thing and her email address is JoanELloyd@att.net. Thank you, Joan for your presentation - please come again.

Mother Clair said the Outreach Center building and expansion project is coming along well and they are holding a raffle to raise money to complete it. She asked the club to sell 50 tickets at $100. each and this will be discussed by the Board. The Club decided to buy one raffle ticket.
