Our last meeting of the year will be the annual Banquet which will be held in St. Thomas at the restored train station. Enjoy a delicious dinner served in a lovely venue steeped in history with fellow guild members, catered by James Meadows.
It promises to be a wonderful evening which you don’t want to miss! There are some very nice door prizes too.
Pauline Grondin will be our guest speaker. Pauline is a professional storyteller, musician, historical interpreter and reenactor and will entertain us with history through quilting.
