UPDATE FROM THE BOARD
July 10, 2020
Fall Activities
The Board of the New Hampshire Weavers Guild has been meeting virtually monthly to plan your Autumn Weavers Guild activities.
Although we will not be able to meet together in person, our monthly Guild meetings will be held using Zoom. Each fall month, we will be offering a monthly Guild update and a special speaker. We will have Zoom Aid before the meeting to make sure everyone can "attend." Separately during the month, we are planning a new virtual offering, Loom Chatter, and maybe a virtual workshop or two. All this will be revealed in the New Hampshire Threads newsletter. These will only be accessible from the Members Only side of the NHWG website.
Have you renewed your NHWG membership for July 2020-June 2021? That is how you will receive the new password and the latest newsletter. The guild has $4,000 of ongoing expenses for rental, insurance, website access, memberships and subscriptions, even if we are not currently meeting at Kimball Jenkins. Your dues will go toward these expenses.
To renew, send your membership renewal check for $32, payable to NHWG, to:Heidi Clow, NHWG Membership Chairman, P.O. Box 1792, Wolfboro, NH 03894.
If you find the cost too much at this time, please let me know and we will find a way to meet your expense anonymously.
We are also working on a plan to provide limited access to the library. You must all be ready to exchange your current library books for new subjects. I know I am.
We hope you are thinking about weaving something for our NEWS 2021 At the Picnic theme and/or yardage for the Daryl Lancaster spring 2021 workshop. Just keep weaving and stay safe!
Feel free to direct any questions, suggestions or concerns to me; Kathy Hutchins (haroldhutchins@comcast.net ).
Kathy Hutchins,
NHWG president
