Pink Lodge

Last night the Daughters of the Nile preformed "THE PINK LODGE". It is a sketch of what the women think the men are doing at the Masonic Lodge. It is a comedy performance, that brings a lot of laughs. This is another one of our fundraising efforts.
This is a wonderful group of women and I enjoy being apart of this organization.
Can you find me??? Just one more way we work to help these children in the hospital. Next week we will be setting up at the world's longest yard sale. The 450 mile yard sale that starts, or ends,( depends on what end you start at), in Gadsden around Noccalula Falls. So if you are traveling the yard sale looking for bargains, stop by and say Hello. We might even have that treasure you are looking for.

This is a article I recently received from scrap jazz:

Scrap Charity: The Gift of Giving
by Tiffany Roberts (Jul 22, 2007) http://www.scrapjazz.com/topics/Miscellaneous/Gifts_and_Craft_Projects/1272.php
I think most of us feel incredibly blessed.
We have families and friends who care for us, children, pets, jobs, homes, and freedoms that many people don't have. Even the simple act of being healthy and whole is a blessing often taken for granted.
I love the idea of using something I adore, scrapbooking, to help benefit others who may not have the blessings in life that I do. The gift of giving is what I like to call it. You can give in many ways. Your time, money, skills, and unused supplies are all necessary and helpful for groups who use scrapbooking as a source of therapy and recreation
Hosting a charity crop is a wonderful way to gather supplies, find like-minded people to join your cause, and to have fun! Donated idea books and magazines are always welcome along with supplies. Once you have some materials you could package supplies into kits, for example. These kits could be donated to any number of youth or elderly groups who would appreciate having them.
Only 5 more openings

Don't you just love going to a crop/retreat?
I know I do....I never get alot done but I like the fact that we all have the same goal in common, to scrap.
A bond forms.
You know what I am talking about.. if a family member or friend does not scrap, they don't know what you are talking about.
They don't know that exciting feeling you get when a new tool or line of paper comes available. When a scrapbook store is having 50% off
and
dinner will have to wait because I am going to be at that class tonight.
Scrapper have a creed of, if I hear it at a crop, it stays at the crop.
We laugh, we act silly, we always eat and sometimes we cry.
There is confessions, there is friendships sealed.
Won't you join us????
