We had a great turnout for our January meeting (and even welcomed a new
member!), and show and tell was pretty inspiring. We voted to pass the
slate of officers for 2017, so the guild leadership remains the same. We encourage all members to start thinking about taking on
leadership roles next year as a few of our officers plan to step down.
We can always use fresh ideas and opinions! We also reviewed the
proposed budget for 2017 and voted to pass it.
