New Year New Changes
Happy New Year
everyone! I hope that you have fully recovered from the Holiday
Season and all of the hustle and bustle that the holiday season
brings upon us. We are gearing up for a fun and exciting new year in
the Stamping Around the Village Club. We wanted to tell you about
some of the exciting new changes in store for 2019.
First, Geri Beutel will be stepping
down as Club President and we thank Geri for her time, dedication,
and commitment to the club. Geri will continue to keep our website
and blog up to date with the club’s current projects and upcoming
events.
Jean Rowell, will be taking over the
leadership and President role within the club. I am so excited about
my new role and look forward to making it the best club ever. Lots of
new & inspiring projects are in store.
Our additional Board Members: include
myself & Geri along with these individuals:
Kathy Klein, will continue on as our
Treasurer. Kathy maintains the financial records for the club.
Katie Robertson will continue on as our
Club’s Librarian. Katie, ensures that our equipment remains in good
working order and that our club’s library is kept up to date. In
past years the club has allowed items to be checked out however, we
are discontinuing this as of now. Why you ask? Well, Some items that
were checked out were not returned to the club by its member. We can
and will revisit this in the future, but for now, we are not
permitting any items to be signed out.
Shirley will continue on our board as
an adviser and special events coordinator.
Second, we’ve discussed whether or
not to implement annual dues for the club. After much discussion, we
are implementing $5.00 annual dues for the club. Beginning in Feb
1st, we will be asking all members to pay an annual fee of
$5.00 . This fee will help to offset some of the expenses that the
club will incur throughout the year. All dues must be paid by end of
February 2019.
Lastly, we are looking for volunteers
to assist us in several ways:
Demonstrators: we would like
2-3 people to demonstrate a new technique, tool, etc. during our
monthly meetings.
Workshops: We would like 2 –
3 people to design and prepare kits for card classes once a month.
You can charge a fee to cover the cost of materials only. We
recommend $1.00-2.00 fee.
WE would love to update our current
club’s roster, so you will be asked to complete a form at our next
meeting and your dues will be collected.
We need your help in making Stamping
Around the Villages the club that every crafter will want to join.
So please invite your friends and neighbors to our next meeting to
see what all the buzz is about. Share the news, share the fun, and
inspiration. IF you are able to pick up a fellow club members and
drive them to a meeting, please let us know.
