New Website Coming soon

Over the summer Suzanne Paquin and Rachel Wilson have been busy creating a new website.  After some initial beta testing, it is anticipated that this new and improved site will be available by the end of the year.  Here are some updates:

• Photos from the current website will be transferred over, and you will be able to add additional photos.  However, your permission is needed for any photos that are 'public'----that is, not just in the Members Only section.  Suzanne & Rachel are requesting that you complete the Photo Release Form.  This is particularly important if you do not want your photo displayed.  If you do not complete this form by September 30th it will be assumed that permission is given.

• Here is some information about how to upload any photos:  Read Me First.

• Each WRSW member will have a folder to upload photos:  Member Photo Folders;  this is available now if you wish to use it.

Have questions?  Contact Rachel Wilson at rwsunshine60@gmail.com (440) 313-1601 weekdays between 4:00 pm and 8:00 pm or Suzanne Paquin at slrp9999@gmail.com .

Prepare to Celebrate!

As you may have heard, this is the 50th year the Western Reserve Spinners & Weavers Guild has been in existence.  To celebrate, the Program Committee is planning a celebration at our November 18th meeting, and I am asking each of you to provide some remarks for the slide show that will be presented (along with the cake and ice cream).

Specifically:

• Please reflect on your time with the Guild, and what it has meant to you.

• Thinking ahead, What do you see in your fiber arts future and how does that involve the Guild?

• Feel free to include one or two photos.

All this can be sent to JoEllen Salkin by October 15th.

Thank you,

Karen Gerken
