Texanna Lady Crafters meet
By SUE TAYLOR-LOUDERMILK

We held our business meeting on March 15, with Helen Tremain leading the meeting with our pledge to the flag. Minutes and Treasurer reports read and approved.

We had one birthday, Ms. Vicki Miller March 18, and three next month: Lisa Smart April 15, Marie Zellner on April 23, and Carol Barber on April23.

The Eufaula VFW recognized us with a certificate of appreciation for our help with the troop pack and Inspiration rocks that we paint and put out at the VA hospital in Muskogee.

We are in need of river rocks 2-3 inches in size for this and if anyone knows where I can get some, please feel free to give me a call at 405220-0077.

Everyone needs to mark their calendars for the Texanna Road garage sale to be held on April 20. We will be set up in front of our store to participate in this great event. Also, come by and see our outdoor items as well as come in and look at all our craft items. Maybe some nice sale items will also be available at that time. Our Spring Fling will be held on May 3. It was voted on to give to our local Fire Departments for annual donation to them.

Check out our new craft items on our Facebook page. We do have some talent in these ladies.

Our April meeting, we will be setting up for the garage sale and have our silent auction at that time.

Our prayers go out so some of our members that are sick and in the hospital. We wish you a quick recovery.

We are located on Texanna Road, right across from Dawn’s Café. Come by and see us. We are open on Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Look for the Butterfly board. Stop and take a picture with your family. It’s free. Well, our little green alien got wiped out last week, so don’t look for him, but we did get some nice exterior lights installed.
