The possibility of changing the monthly meeting format was discussed.

The 3rd Monday would become a workday – for special projects or individual sewing time. The occasional 5th Monday would be disbanded. A vote to accept this change will be presented at the June membership meeting. If approved this change would go into effect with the August 2010 meeting.
July 19th will be the annual luncheon and Trash to Treasure sale. The type of meal was discussed – the suggestion was 1. Catered, 2. PNP to provide a main entrée, or 3. A potluck.
