April

Dear Knitters,

It always seems as the daily temperature increases so does my long list of chores. Thankfully there is always more daylight to accomplish them this time of year. Decided to take a chance and planted some seeds in the garden on the Easter weekend. Crossing my fingers that the ground stays warm enough so they sprout. Hope everyone is enjoying the mild Spring weather.
With just over a week till the Armstrong Trade Fair, (I’m getting excited) I thought I should review with you some of the decisions we made at the last meeting.

Dress Rehearsal
Dress rehearsal for the Trade Fair is Thursday April 26 (our next meeting). Please bring everything you signed up to bring. At the meeting we plan on doing a dry run so there will be no big surprises when we actually set-up on Friday. If all goes to plan setup on Friday should be a breeze and allow plenty of time for exploring.

Note: If you will not be able to make the April 26th meeting please pass your items onto another member of the group.

Set Up
We all gather Hanson Arena on Friday, the 27th at 7 pm to ready the booth. To refresh our memories I have listed what we volunteered to bring below.

Thanks to everyone for volunteering to spend a couple of hours meeting and greeting our neighbors and future members of the circle. With so much activity all around, the time is really going to pass quickly. The schedule for Saturday the 28th is as follows:
