Our guild meets monthly with a 6:30 to 9:00 pm timeline. We have over 300 members, with about 150-200 attending the meetings. Small quilt groups (we have about 30) volunteer to bring the snacks each month by signing the volunteer list every few months. Hot water for tea, cookies, veggies and dip, crackers and cheese. Sometimes baskets of lemons or other produce from their gardens to take home! (iris roots, tulip bulbs, lilly sets) We eat and socialize from 6:30 to 7:00, business meeting for about 20 minutes, then break for eating and library and bargain garden and shopping whatever our speaker has provided. Then 7:30 to about 8:30 is speaker, then the rest is show and tell.
