President's Message February, 2010
What's happening at PS of NH?
The big news we have to report is that Lally, the wonderful lady that she is, resigned as your President. She felt that because of an underlying medical issue, she was not going to be able to accomplish the task the way she felt it needed be done, so I have been handed the reins. Lally will stay on arranging our programs for us. Nancy Johnson stepped up as Vice President to assist me. We have several other new people in charge but as a group, we are all learning the ropes together.
Another
new change is the format of our newsletter. As you read it, notice how professional it looks! Way to go Sue! It now includes our contact information. Don’t forget the deadline for registration for the Members Exhibit at the Red Roof Gallery on March 10th. Just a reminder that delivery of your paintings can be made at the Member’s Meeting on April 3rd. A registration form is on the website at www.pastelsocietynh.com and is also in our newsletter.Have you sent in your membership renewal yet? Please double check to make sure it was mailed. You wouldn’t want to miss a workshop with our own Kitty Cloud or Kim Lordier, PSA this year! If you are unsure, email Marcia Blakeman, our new Membership Chair (email is on the board list in the February newsletter) and she can verify it for you. If you need a form, it is on our website.
