June 2011 Newsletter

Woo Hoo! Summer is here! Time for family vacations, going to the beach, and just plain relaxing! For some of us, relaxing=crafting! Our summer class schedule is packed with fun projects that will keep you busy all summer!
So don't miss out on the fun!

Speaking of fun... the DT got together to wish Michele a Happy Birthday last month, and we thought we'd share a photo since its so hard for all of us to get together, let alone take a picture.

Have a safe and happy summer! See you soon!
