From the President
Happy New Year!
It is hard to believe it is 2012. We had a fantastic year as a
chapter. It seems our workshops just get better and better. Please be sure to mark your calendars for the third Saturday of each month. Already our new board is working on
making this a great learning year. Also, take a few minutes
and think about what committees and activities might be for
you. We will have a sign up sheet for committees for the next
year and welcome all member's input and ideas. Lets make
our resolutions to include enjoying our chapter and learning
new painting projects. I look forward the 2012 and thanks to
all our members for allowing me to serve you.

A Message from the First Vice President
Not just out of consideration for our instructors/teachers, but out of necessity, our chapter will start
in February 2012 a "preregistration" for workshops/seminars. The Wednesday before the chapter's
class is the cut-off date for registering. Please plan ahead and make arrangements.
New members or guests will have to sign up by the cut-off date as well or get permission from the
first vice president to see if it is okayed by teacher. The teacher needs to know the head count to be
prepared with supplies.
The cost for member's workshops will remain at $10, visiting instructors set the amount they charge
the chapter per day, this cost to the member would usually be $30 but not more than $40, the chapter will pick up the balance due. However, members from other chapters and guests will be charged
an additional $5 to attend an ODA sponsored seminar.
