Mar 12, 2005 - Texas Gourd Society Spring Meeting

Growers sell dry, cleaned gourds at the front of the LCRA building and in the parking area. You can get seeds and plants, too. Box Lunches are $8. Contact Clara Willibey willibey@sbcglobal.net or 281-493-0117.You can bring your own lunch if you want, or skip lunch after a big breakfast.

The meeting starts with introductions and member voting for changes in the TGS Constitution and by-laws. Then you will vote for new officers for the coming 12 months. After a lunch break, the classes begin. There might be one or two more classes than those shown here.

CLASSES WILL INCLUDE:
Bob Schuetze will give planting and growing tips in his popular "Seeds to Sale" class.
Bev Tomek will demonstrate "Embossing Metal Images"
Eve Dewvall and Lelia Sublett will give a hands-on class on paint marbleizing effects.
Sue Haberer will present Health and Safety for Gourd Crafters.

DIRECTIONS TO THE LCRA BUILDING
From I-35, take the 6th street exit, and go west. Sixth Street is one-way and becomes Lake Austin Blvd, and will take you between the lake and a golf course. The driveway into the building is the first right turn after the traffic light at Red Bud Trail. Bring a friend or two.
