SOCIAL SNAKK
Lorrie Brenner
We've been weathering the storms (with snow sports getting their patience rewarded!) and looking forward to spring now!! When you come to our March meeting, please feel free to bring any knitting and crocheting materials you have and be ready to learn or refresh your memories on stitches and techniques. If you would like to display pieces you have made along the way, bring them - we would love to see them!! Until then, may peace, health, prosperity and happiness be with you. Takk!
Upcoming meetings include:
March 23, @ 7:30pm Knitting Demonstration / Treats & Beverages
April 27, @ 6:30pm Pot Luck ~ Installation of New Members & Rosemaling Demonstration
May 25, @ 7:30pm Norwegian Knives Demonstration / Treats & Beverages. This is also "Troll Night" where all ages are encouraged to bring their troll dolls, stories, you name it, to put on display, like sweater night when people wear their Norwegian sweaters. If you want to dress up like a troll, that would be fun too! Anything "troll like" is fair game.

Jimmy Tarbet has filled out an official new member form and will be installed at our April 27th meeting! At the last Board Meeting, I presented the idea of a "New Member BBQ" on Saturday, June 23rd, which will be brought up for approval at the March 23rd meeting.
LAUGHS FROM THE LIBRARIAN
Lorrie Brenner
Starting JOKE: Sven & Ole were several hours late for the opening of the Norsk Hostfest. Their excuse? "About every 50 miles we saw signs that said, 'clean restrooms' ".
As librarian, I am in the midst of putting together a list of the book titles / authors, pamphlets, videos and dates of the lodge historical documents / pictures available to borrow from our library. Once completed, I would like to have it printed up as an insert for the May/June edition of our newsletter so that everyone will know what we have to offer.
Ending JOKE: Do you know what they asked Ole when he called the urology department at the clinic? They said, "Can you hold?".
BABYSITTING BABBLE
Karli & Bill Barber
Children are our blossoming future - we highly encourage families with children of all ages to come to our meetings and events. Undeniably, youth brings enthusiasm, energy and hopefulness to our lodge and, without them, we will not survive. That fact being said, we hope that everyone is aware that we offer onsite babysitting for each of our meetings and events. So pack up the kids and join us for lots of good food, great company and fun-filled times!! *SN*
