- Sign up early to get the supply list.
- Do the prep beforehand!
- Check your e-mail for details on class materials and other pertinent information.
- Workshops are held in the same location as our monthly meeting, unless otherwise stated. The church will be open by 8:30 AM. Plan to arrive before 9:00 AM to set up for the day. Besides supplies suggested by presenter, consider bringing a long extension cord and a power strip. Make sure you power strip will plug into your extension cord – some heavy extension cords only accept two prong plugs. A light jacket may be a good idea as well.
