After a two month "summer break" we held our first meeting on September 9 and the turnout was great. I guess we are all happy to be back to do what we enjoy...."Decorative Painting". The meeting went well and the afternoon painting program was great. There are many exciting things to look forward to within the chapter. Everyone is looking forward to NET in October. We are getting ready for a new slate of officers with the installation luncheon in November. In December, we have our holiday party and the Rhody Buck auction. There are many things going before we end another successful chapter year.
Check back for updates.
Here are some pictures from Sunday's meeting.

Kathy Macomber is the chairperson for this year's Community Service. It is "Project for Linus" a blanket drive. Our chapter is collecting blankets to donate to this charity. As usual, our members are very generous and we have made several deliveries to the local chapter of "Project for Linus".

Carol Kernozek from our Ways and Means had many good buys at her table so make sure you check for bargains at our monthly meetings. Carol also demonstrated the proper way to clean our brushes. Proper cleaning is very important since it will prolong the life of these pricey brushes we all own. Thanks Carol for this information. I, for one, found it very informative.

March 11, 2012 Afternoon Painting with Marieanne Willis
There was a good turnout at the afternoon painting program with Marieanne Willis. The class was relaxing and we all went home with a completed painting of a lovely flower. It was fun learning how to use a piece of Mulberry Paper for the root area of the flower which added a nice demention to our picture. Thanks Marieanne for teaching this class.
