On November 1st members spent an evening at Board and Brush in Ramsey. What creative women we have! We distressd, we stained, we painted and we enjoyed a few nibbles. Everyone chose their own special project–and they all came out great!
Members celebrated May with a trip to Montclair to view the Presby Memorial Iris Gardens. Since 1927, these gardens have celebrated the blooming of Irises of every hue in memory of Frank H.

The gardens were spectacular, and we enjoyed lunch together at Samba, a Brazilian restaurant in Montclair.
