Oh, we had some fun at the beginning of the meeting. We at our normal meeting place only to be locked out. It was a very confusing. We had a key to the annex room only to be shut out because the room was being used as a tax preparer room.
It basically meant that we had to have our meeting elsewhere so we left and went to West Memphis’s Church of God to have our meeting.
The meeting was finally opened at 7:25 and the formality began.
Sandy read the minutes from the last meeting.
Clara gave her report on our finances. Clara is looking for a free account to place our moneys into because our current bank is charging a fee for our account.
REPORT ON SARA
Sara is doing fine and the doctors say that they have got all the cancer. Sara hopes to be back at the meetings soon.
Our primary art project is due at the May meeting. Most of the 11 there said they were not ready yet.
DISPLAY
James is the coordinator and is looking for members who wish to have their own show at one of our ventures. He did not have the list of where everyone was showing at just that Helen is showing at Marion Suntrust Bank.
We are no longer showing at the chamber of West Memphis. They are remodeling and choose what the design wants.
We are hanging at Veanos Restaurant.
