Shirley also shared her Italian Meatball Soup recipe. 
A Recipe Page has been added to the website - so Enjoy!

Club Business- Shirley Birkey has sold "Baskets By Glenya" and will no longer be providing baskets for the club.  She is in the process of returning the last contributions to the individuals that contributed to the "basket fund". 

Also there is discussion on the table to move the General Club meeting back to Thursday night vs. Wednesday night.  We would like to vote on this at the June General meeting.  If you are not able to attend, but would like to have your voice heard, please send an e-mail to Pam or call Pam at (574) 277-6513.

They will be collecting blankets to donate to "Project Linus".  If you would like more information on "Project Linus" visit their website at: http://www.projectlinus.org/ We have been knitting up the donated yarn on Thursday nights during Open Knitting.  We are making an effort to deliver several afghans to the Linus project.

Open Knitting

Open Knitting will continue through the summer months as long as there is still interest.  Doors open from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m Indiana Time.

NO OPEN KNITTING on June 27th.  Fred is scheduled for minor surgery and I don't think he'll be available for the "door man".

Also, NO OPEN KNITTING on July 4th

Wedding - June 1, 2002

Yes, Amy and David were married in Atlanta on June 1st at the Academy of Medicine, a historic structure located in Mid-town.  They are currently honeymooning in Italy and France until June 21st.

I don't have any pictures to share at this time.  I was in charge of the Video Camera.  Hopefully we will receive a few actual pictures from all those that were snapping through out the evening.  Amy will receive 1,000 proofs from the "professional photographer" which she'll have actual pictures printed from.  I'll post pictures when we have some - maybe sometime in July.  

Happy Birthday!
