Sorry about the confusion...

The wedding that was to take place at GCPC this weekend has been canceled!

So, we are cropping at GCPC (aka church!) in Gore Hall.

Our devotion this month is on God's Good Gifts - the first being "Myself". (And I don't mean me personally, I mean each individual God created!)

So, cropping starts at 5pm! Bring something to munch on and share.

Place to crop on June 19th

For whatever reason, I cannot add comments...

Scrapbook Village is available for us to crop. It is a regular Friday Night Crop that night, however Bonnie can arrange seating / tables so that we are all together.

We will need confirmations on who will be attending. Also, no babysitting will be provided that night.

I am a little fuzzy if there is a crop fee - I do not think there will be though. Also, you are under no obligation to purchase items from the store, however it is very convenient.

There is a picture machine if you need to reduce, change, resize, or just print out a couple of photos. Bonnie also has a diecut machine with a TON of dies that can be used along with a variety of punches, paints, foam stamps, etc.

So, basically we need some feedback! Where should we crop? Bonnie will need to know soon to save spots.

This is another place that's in Tennessee called Petticoat Junction bed and breakfast. I do not know of anyone that has been, but it looks so nice. And, they have really good specials pretty often. The only drawback with this one is that you have to book the whole place whether you have 3 or 15. But, the good thing is that you can have 15 people. It's about an hour from Nashville (what they say, anyway.)

Next meeting

Hey fellow croppers!! Our next meeting is scheduled for Friday, June 19. We cannot have it at the church, so we can use my office which is located at 220 W. Washington Street. Turning Point Counseling. I should be there beginning at 4pm. So, anytime after that is great! There will not be a place for childcare to be provided, so we will not have it that night. Sorry! Also, WARNING!-- my office has steep steps going into it. So, you may just want to bring a special project or something instead of bringing everything. It IS hard to get stuff up the steps.

If anyone can think of another place to have it, let me know. We also need someone to provide the devotional for that night. If anyone is interested, please let me know.

So anyone that would like to attend, registration starts June 10th at noon our time. Check out the classes and event information at http://www.creatingkeepsakes.com/.
