MEETING NOTICE:
REGULAR MEMBERS MEETING THURSDAY OCTOBER 8, 1PM AT MOUNTAIN VIEW UNITED METHODIST CHURCH WORSHIP CENTER

Thank you all for coming to the September meeting.

We had 55 attendees including 16 guests. Four people became members: two are new and two were members in the past – we welcome all of them. We now have 121 members.

This was our first opportunity to meet in our new venue, the Worship Center. Our regular monthly meetings will be held there, although our monthly workshops will still be held in the Verde Room in the other building.Also, the Christmas party meeting will be held in the Verde Room.

Thank you also for your patience as we worked through some technical difficulties with the audio. Some thoughtful members have stepped up to offer us their microphone and amplifier equipment beginning with the October meeting. Additionally, we have a new projector generously donated by Keith and Diane Zimmerman, and we have a new portable projection screen. We continue to welcome visitors and members of other art organizations to share their activities as a regular feature of our meetings.
