Love and Friendship

holding-hands.jpgFriendship is a word that we use casually to talk about relationships that we have…”Oh, she’s a friend from…”. Love has a closer more intimate meaning to people.  “oh, she’s a friend, I love her laugh…”

I’ve been watching Heather’s friends and family gather to support her in her battle with ALS and I can’t help but wonder have we told her, and each other how much we value the love and friendships that we have?  The friendships that grow stronger and deeper and more beautiful as each day goes by.

Happy Spring Everyone.  I am honoured to count you all as friends.

Odds and Ends from tonight’s meeting

We had a fantastic meeting again…a heavy agenda.  Watch for the minutes to come your way.

Here are some things that EVERYONE can help with.

  • If anyone has blue print fabric that we can use (checked, patterned, cotton, poly, whatever) please call Teri and let her know
  • We need mason jars (the 750 mL size) with lids.  If you have spaghetti sauce mason jars (like Classico, or PC) then please wash them out WITH THE LIDS and drop them at Shelley’s house (4 Melissa).

Also, please remember to let Maria know about any silent auction donations that you get.  She needs a note complete with the description of the item, the donor’s name, address and phone number, and if the donor wants a tax receipt from ALS then we also need a receipt/letter from them detailing the item and its value.

Thanks for all of your hard work ladies…let’s keep up the hard work.

Meeting Reminder

wine-glasses.jpgJust a quick reminder that the planning committee for HH4H will be meeting on March 17th at 7:30 at the Northumberland Street venue.  Please make sure that you bring contact information (email and phone) for all performers who have confirmed with you.  You should have gotten an email from Lynn with all other details attached including the agenda.  Drop her a line if you haven’t.

Remember that Lynn likes red wine, white wine, any wine that you have handy. It looks like a heavy agenda so come prepared to work.

The Warm Breezes of March

Okay, I am kidding.  The only warm breezes that we are feeling here come from the central heating. 

Planning continues for the Hootenanny, although reports are that many of the committee are in fact headed to the sunny south for a little rest and relaxation.  Enjoy yourselves ladies, and make sure that Heather isn’t getting into too much trouble!
