News What's Happening with our Members Kindly Email All Member News to Mary Yaeger Fall 2010 Bead Bazaar Our latest Bead Bazaar was a great success,and many visitors signed up for membership. A new addition which proved very popular was the raffle prizes given out throughout the day; items were generously donated by society members. This generated much excitement and buzz around our table in the foyer. We will repeat the raffle giveaways at our next Bead Bazaar in March 2011. Also being planned for the next Bazaar will be a table in the foyer for children to bead small items while their parents shop. We're always looking for innovative ideas to keep the bazaars fresh and fun, and welcome your suggestions.
