<html><div style='background-color:'><P>Greetings all!</P>
<P>This week you have not one, but two - yes two!!- chances to visit with us. </P>
<P>On Thursday, the Stierbach Glass Guild will meet, beginning at 7 p.m., to turn rods of glass into works of art. Please let me know if you are coming so I will know how many workstations to set up! Also, please bring your own fuel, if possible. We use one-pound canisters of MAPP gas, which is readily available at both Home Depot and Lowes (look in the tools/welding sections). The canisters are yellow. Propane will work too - but MAPP burns cleaner. </P>
<P>On Friday, there will be a Bardic Circle, also beginning at 7. The last one we had was the best we've had in more than a year. Let's keep up the momentum!! I know there are bardic competitions coming up, and there are folks looking for new material - or for an audience to share what they know. Songs, stories, poems, puns and bad jokes are all welcome!! We tend towards Period, Period "style" and SCA themes, but any genre is welcome. </P>
<P>Our two Labs, Connor (the escape artist) and Sandy will greet you at the door. </P>
