Craft and Skills Exhibit
The project for this year, led by Jean Bridgeman, was a knitted farm. It was hoped that the farm could be donated to a local children's group but unfortunately due to new safety regulations this has not been possible. Jean is however hopeful that interest shown at the show will result in the farm going to a good cause.
Update: The farm is going to an African orphange more details in 'September Meeting'.
