Nutmeg Knitters

Happy Spring! This is my favorite time of the year with all the new growth of the plants with their blossoms bursting after the long winter. Our gardens liked the deluge of rain even if our basements didn’t!
We are down to the last three meetings of this year. I thought I would present the vacancies in the board for the coming year with a short job description, so people could mull over where they feel they could fit in and it would give them time to talk with the outgoing board member regarding the position.

President: Run the monthly meeting. Set up and run board meetings as needed – usually 1 or 2 meetings a year. Get the contract for our meeting site.

Vice-President: Fill in to run the meetings when the president not in attendance. We had no V.P. this year and Pat Norcia kindly ran one meeting. (We are all friends and help each other.)

Secretary: Takes minutes of the business meeting and gets them to the editor of the newsletter for publication.

Program: This can be a shared position. Plan the monthly meetings. Yarn Shops are a good resource and gladly will present a short program of interest. Also, there are talented members willing to share.

Newsletter: Silvia has a digital guide to assist you in the newsletter. It would help to be computer savvy.

Raffle: Shop for a monthly raffle prize at yarn shops and run the raffle at the meeting. The club gives the money upfront for the purchase. It is not a position of asking for donations.

Hospitality: Set up a sign-up sheet for snacks and a Box of Joe. Remind members monthly. Store and bring in club’s teapot, etc. each month. Organize a potluck or whatever food oriented event that might be planned.

We certainly have a friendly group of women and a great club in The Nutmeg Knitters. I’m sure volunteers will come forward to fill these vacancies. You may e-mail me with your offers of help. The election will be done by ballot at the June meeting. Thanks in advance.

Keep Those Needles Klicking,
Ginny
