( Please bring check FOR $48 made out to Ann Sniders to June 4 meeting) The basket is a double wall (sort of a bread basket) made of natural things.  Ann will also talk to us about things we can find in our gardens or roadsides and the way to harvest them for basket making.  It should be a fun time.  We’ll start at 9 am. And can each of you bring a dish to pass for lunch so that we don’t have to stop to go out. If you want to attend and were not at the meeting, kindly let Jo Ann know so she can tell Ann how many to plan for.

BUSINESS
Marty has agreed to be President in the coming year.  She will assign a vice-pres., As no on stepped up to the plate for that office. Judy agreed to take over our money and Sara will continue with these missives.

JUNE BASKET
June basket will be led by Ann.  Pattern enclosed.  Original basket was smaller and she thought it would be more useful in a larger size so change the preparation to read  cut from “3/8 natural flat..3 @ 27”, 5 @ 24”, 2 @ 34” for handle, and 2 @ 8” for fillers.  Base should measure 5 ½ “X 2” when complete.
