Our group meets at our church but all everyone is welcome. We have no officers, no dues, no attendance is taken. Some quilt, some knit, do counted cross stich, crochet or Just visit. We meet from 9:30am to 4:00pm, usually the 3rd Saturday of the month. We can stay as long as we want or leave early. I"d say we are a very informal group. We've been meeting for almost 20 years. Lunch is either soup or salad with each person brings a cup of what ever to contibute to the main dish and something to complement the soup or salad. We always have plenty with leftovers. There is one person who emails a monthly reminder of what the lunch will be.
