June 2015 Meeting

Hello Everyone,

I am a little late on this email, but I hope everyone will understand.  We are going to have our meeting this month at:

Spring Creek Barbeque
315 West State Highway 114
Grapevine, TX

This will be a summer celebration, so bring your favorite project to knit, eat some barbeque and drink some tea.  I'm ready for their cobbler as well.

If you have time and would like, please feel free to stop over at the new Grapevine Rec Center on Main Street and check out their crafts classrooms.  We are seriously thinking about using that space for seven months of the year, September through April with December and May at a special restaurant location.  June, July and August will be discussed at a later date.

There are a lot of pros and cons to this space, but I am all for it.  The meetings would be from:

 7:00 to 9:00 pm on the 2nd Thursday of the month.

There is a ton of space, great lighting and large screen tv for presentations.  It would step our guild up a notch and make us more serious about spreading the needlecraft of knitting and crocheting to a new level.

The down side of this is we have to pay for the space, and may have to increase dues (no more than $5 annually).  No decision will be made till we do an email vote of the membership.

REMEMBER:

Saturday, June 13 is Knit in Public at Southlake Town Center.

Hope to see everyone Thursday night and Saturday!

The Craft Yarn Council asked me to forward information about the Stitch and Pitch at Texas Rangers Baseball Game.

June Meeting and Location Search

Good Morning Everyone!

Last night was a very good evening!  I hope everyone enjoyed themselves.

We continue to search for that ideal place to hold our monthly meetings and we are researching all of our options.

I just spoke with Spring Creek Barbecue and confirmed we can have our June meeting there.  The banquet room holds 75 people and the gentleman I spoke with is pleased our group contacted Spring Creek.

The Spring Creek location is 315 W. State Hwy 114, Grapevine, TX.

Members, please continue looking into other locations.  All ideas you send to me and will be checked out!

I will keep everyone updated as we go forward with our search.

I am glad we had such a good turnout last night and so much fun!  I am looking forward to our next meeting on June 11 and getting summer started right!

Dixie
