Greetings from the President
Hi Ladies,
Summer finally came and my ac went to pot. Now instead of
whining about the cold I am whining about the heat. I'm thinking
maybe I just like to whine. I hope you are out enjoying the summer.
We still have some nice classes this year. September 14 Vera is
teaching us a really cute Halloween project, October 10-12 we have
a three day seminar with Arlene Newman and November 16 we are
having a memory box workshop. Info and sign up sheets are on the
web site or you can contact Luana.
The auction this year is September 28. We will have a live auction
and the $25 and under table as well as lunch. Tickets will be $20
and it will be at the same church as last year. We are asking each
member to contribute items for the auction and for the $25 and
under table. Some suggestions are men's items, furniture, kids
things, seasonal items and flower pots. If you have hobbies other
than painting you could donate something from that. As always we
need everyone's help to make our auction a success. Money raised
from the auction helps to defray the expenses for the paint ins and a
portion goes to a charity.
The lunch and raffle tickets will be mailed to you in a few weeks.
The raffle items this year are an antique wash stand that Chery is
going to do with a mosaic top, an entry way table with an Arlene
Linton doily painted on it by me and a basket made by Sharma and
filled by Kelly McCord.
I hope to see you at the paint ins and auction.
Carol

I want to remind all NEDA members we will be continuing our
Munson Hospital, Community Service, Memory Box Program
in 2019. This project is important to the families who have lost
a new born baby and it gives them a special hand painted
Memory Box to hold all their precious memories to be
treasured, by that family, for years to come.
Not sure if you all are aware that if it were not for our hand
painted memory boxes these families would be given a plain
wooden box shaped like a coffin to take home. This is terrible
and why Munson is so appreciative for as many memory boxes
we can provide them.
So I am asking each member to paint at least 3 to 4 boxes or
more would be fantastic. Many people ask what design should
be on these boxes, my suggestions are, lambs, angels, flowers,
teddy bears, or any design that is sweet, not aggressive in
nature and a design you would give your infant
grandchildren. Each box you take contains a slip of paper for
you to fill out and will stay in the finished box. We have been
asked to not include anything other than the slip of paper in the
box. We do not want to take a chance of offending the
recipient.
Memory boxes will be at all NEDA Painting Classes for you to
take and I will also have a signup sheet which will include an
area for your name and how many you take home and phone
number. You can also get memory boxes by emailing me
[email protected] with how many boxes and how I can get the
boxes to you. I look forward to as many painted memory boxes
that you can paint this year. Just think, if 10 people painted 4
boxes we could provide 40 memory boxes to Munson
Hospital's Maternity Unit. Wouldn't it be great if we could
provide more. I just know we can do this.
