HELP! PWS needs you artists, photographers, quilters and other talented folks to be thinking about what you might be able to donate to our wonderful Holiday Bazaar in October. The Bazaar will be Friday and Saturday, October 23 and 24 from 9 to 2. Hope you’ll plan to come and invite your neighbors and friends.
May 7 will be our next Gathering and our own Judy E will educate us on the use and prep of many common herbs. Meeting at 11, lunch at noon and program at about 12:30. Everyone is welcome! (See you at the Bazaar!)
