Midsummer Weave Report: Julie indicated that 5 teachers will be coming to the event; approx 45 students are signed up. Volunteers are needed to help with food; members coming to the event are asked to bring a snack or dessert to midsummer weave for the "snack sharing table."

Sept 14 is the Billy Owens white oak basket class at Julie Kleinrath's house. 9 people are signed up at this time. Cost is $65 and must be paid in full by Aug 2, our next guild meeting. Contact Julie if you are interested. Sept. 11 is another Weave in the Park. Margaret Harness from Willowes Basketry will be teaching 3 different baskets. Contact Ginger if you are interested. Email will be sent showing the 3 baskets that will be taught. (Note: Contact Carol White if you are interested.) Last month's Weave in the Park was well attended and lots of fun....this one should be as well!!! President's Report: Darlene reported that 3 guild members went to the Creative Festival in Sharonville; lots of people asked about the guild. This event was seen as good exposure for the guild. Royalwood Basket Guild Day is Sept. 18. It starts at 10 or 10:30 am. This is in Mansfield-we can go as a group. Let Darlene know if you are interested . Jennie Dranschak is a featured artist in Vandalia this month. Stop in at the City Government Center in Vandalia to see examples of her wonderful basketry and caning work.

I will keep you informed on her progress. Thanks Cheryl Penny Bernie Jines asks you to continue to keep Jean's brother in-law, Rick, in your thoughts and prayers. He is still in critical condition although his condition has improved, slightly. Jean and Bernie are very close to Jean's sister who lives in Louisiana. The husband of Mary Rhodes July 15, last week. Please keep Mary and her family in your thoughts and prayers. I am a Grandma at last! Ashton John born June 18th/ 9 lb. 21.5 inched long/ big boy!
