Rules

Official guild business meetings are held at the Guild Hall at 12:15 on the first Saturday of the month except in January.

If the Guild meeting day is predicted to be over 35 degrees, the fleece seller may choose not to be present, the guest speaker will be invited to reschedule, and the business agenda will be compacted as much as possible.

From 9:30am-12 noon members can:

  • Bring their current work to the display table and share their creative experiences with other members either in the morning or in the appropriate section of the Guild’s monthly Business meeting.
  • Purchase supplies from the fleece seller, yarn table, and the trading table.
  • Rent or purchase equipment from the equipment room.
  • Borrow books, magazines, and DVDs from the Guild’s large specialist library. Most items can be borrowed for a month for a small fee.

Tea or coffee and cake and a light lunch are available from the kitchen for a small cost. Please order lunch ahead of time if you require it.

Guest speakers are invited to speak on craft-related subjects. Please pass suggestions for guest speakers to any Guild committee member.
