From The Board
Greetings! First, thanks to everyone for a very successful year with BSSF. With the economic downturn, many clubs have felt the account strings tighten and seen a loss of membership. BSSF is not immune, but have held our own. We were able to schedule informative programs with excellent raffle material in 2009. We look forward to 2010 with another great lineup of programs, speakers, and workshops.

2010 is going to be a challenging year with a record number of BSSF displays planned. We need everyone’s help to be successful. Eric Schrader and John Edwards are charing the two major shows for next year. Please see either one to sign up for show duties as soon as possible. The planning for these shows has begun and we are already assigning tasks to members.

The 50th anniversary show will be very special. If you have any personal accounts of the club’s history, please let us know. We would like to develop an article for the newsletter in April of 2010.

The pinch pots we made are ready! They will be available for pick up a the holiday party. Please try to take home your pots or they may become raffle prizes at next Spring’s meetings!

Last month we elected new officers for the club and welcomed John Dale to the Board. Next years officers are:

President: Lawrence LeClaire
Past President: Robert Smith
Vice President: Bernard Marque
Secretary: Diana Lum
Treasurer: Daryl Quijano
Librarian: Debra Bleemer
Board Members: John Edwards, Tim Kong, Eric Schrader, John Dale, & Debra Bleemer.
