The president will have further updates on the meeting location at the January, 2011 meeting.
The president opened the floor to suggestions for additional 2011 TKGV activities. Members suggested planning a Richmond, VA yarn shop crawl and an out of town knitting retreat, perhaps to the Outer Banks, N.C. Members will research the possibilities of these events.
We concluded the meeting with the member show and tell and the gift exchange. The meeting adjourned at 8:50 p.m.
