June 2022 – Bloomin’ News

 

Hello Ladies,

Where is our Summer!  I guess next week, but we welcome the late rains we’ve received.

Our June meeting had 31 in attendance with one member rejoining us (Carol Osborne) and one new member, Cindy Callaghan.  Welcome ladies!!

A big thank you to Bob & Carol Game for hosting our meeting in their beautiful backyard. This meeting was another wonderful potluck!

A presentation was given by Robin Lynde with Meridian Jacob Sheep Farm on turning sheep wool into yarn.  It was a very interesting process. She brought several foot driven spinners and looms to show the process of the wool to yarn, dying of the yarn with plants and flowers.  Looms to show the different kinds of weaving. She brought different kinds of woven blankets, hats, scarves.  Absolutely beautiful. All were available for purchase which many members did.

Rummage Sale – Saturday, May 21st was our annual Rummage Sale.   A big thank you to Mary Lou Katon & Colleen Ferreri for the awesome job they did in raising $725.00!!!

Wagon Train – Friday June 10th is our annual Wagon Train event.  Our club booth will be selling Beer Floats, Bakes Sale & Doggie Treats.

4th of July Parade Bake Sale – Baked goods & Doggie Treats will again be for sale before, during and after the parade, or until gone!  We’re still taking sign ups for baked goods.  Call Maureen Julian  (see roster) or Lauran Goddard (see roster) if you’d like to donate baked items.

Gardens – Team Leader Jan Roman-Gonzales has been working with the garden committee.

Shed Project – The Shed was scrapped last month in preparation for paint.  It will be power washed and painted beginning of June. The ladies also cleaned the inside, going through the totes and reorganizing the shed.
