April 2024

There have been several Pichi Richi mornings which have brought back the regular Saturday morning visitors.

As usual the comments have been complimentary with one woman taking her time to congratulate us on the beautiful gallery.


Sales have been brisk during the month and we urge all members to contribute to the gallery if they can. Please keep in mind the originality and presentation of your work.



Surprise of the month was the sale of Oceana Elektrica who is off to her new home in Port Elliot.
 




Family Activities continue to be successful but this month was not as busy. We find that 2 activities work well.

We are looking for another activity for July and September.... please let us know if you can help out.


For New members. The group meeting times are 
THANK YOU

Plenty of time to come up with some ideas.
