President’s Message
We are enjoying our glorious summertime in Seattle. Vacations, family visits and outdoor concerts fill our calendars. When your SOG renewal form arrives in the mail, please take a quick moment to renew your membership, perhaps increasing your level to the next stage, and pat yourself on the back for a job well done. The Guild will host more fundraisers during the summer, always such fun. If you are unable to attend, please send a donation. This helps so much with the profitability of an event. When we return in August for the Preview Chairs’ Meeting, there will be a new directory for you. Our apologies for the problems we have experienced this year with the transition of our membership database to our new website. We now need a data manager to input new members’ details and keep the list current. After a bit of training, this should not require more than a couple of hours a week. Please volunteer for this position or suggest a willing member in your group. This is our greatest need, outside of funding, at the moment. Have a wonderful summer! See you in August.
