Mar 6 meeting

Presidents Remarks

Social media was a topic that was discussed at the last board meeting. It was decided that a meeting between the social media people was a good idea.  At the social media meeting it was decided that the website needed some changes. We now have a Facebook account that is open to the public. Don’t need to have an individual account to view our Facebook account. No posting only comments allowed. We now have a Flicker account but access is only by invitation to only guild members. Fraser Valley Quilt Show June 12 & 13 and are going to have and Ironman quilt event again. 4 person team. Do we want to put a couple of teams in this year?
