CGOA Chapter activities

Our chapter has been very busy this summer. It was suggested that we have a weekend activity similar to the Knitters Day Out. We all enjoy the vendors market at KDO, but the classes are strictly knitting oriented. So a Crocheters Day was suggested, and it so happens one of our members was previously an event planner, and she was eager. So, in July we had our first planning committee meeting, where we discussed renting a church. To do that we have to have insurance. To do that we have to file for our non-profit status. To do that we have to have written bylaws... So I've been involved with this committee in notifying the chapter about an upcoming business meeting, editing bylaws, researching the paperwork needed for applying for non-profit status, and nominating a slate of officers for the chapter. Then I presented all this to the membership at Thursday's meeting. We will be voting on the bylaws and officers at the August meeting.
The Chapter is still busy with our baby sweater project, also.
