HAPPY 2008!!  Another new year is with us. This months meeting should take place in the  large hall in the new building.  Alley-oop is working on a guest that will  take us thru the very easy process of creating a costume vest!  It should be easy enough so that even if you don’t sew, you should be able to learn how from this lecture.  The officers will also be meeting this month, and will be planning out future meeting entertainment, so, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO LEARN THIS YEAR???

See ya next week...  "J"

Secretary's report 12/11/07 Meeting minutes.

There was no formal meeting.  Our annual Christmas Party / Alley Birthday Celebration was held at the local branch of the North Pole located at Connie Eldridge’s home in Danvers.  About 17 of us showed up.  Trudy came from the South Shore - it was nice to see her.

The pizza was delicious.  Rich Gordon brought his homemade fruit smoothie - Thank you Rich.

The Yankee swap was fun.  The snowman doll went through a few hands before it found a home.  Other gifts included the giant Pez Doll, gift certificates for Diamond’s Magic, scratch tickets, balloon kits, photo albums, a chatter ring, clowning books, and gift bags with fun stuff in them.

Connie, thank you for opening up your home to us!
