Guild members:

As of this message, the meeting & auction are still scheduled to be held tomorrow morning, Feb. 6. The forecast calls for no snow in the Enfield area. However, if you are unsure whether the school is open or not, you can call Asnuntuck's snow line at 1-800-501-3967 and choose option 2. If the school is not closed, we will have our meeting. Please use your own judgement if you are in an area that does get snow.

If for some reason the school IS closed, then we will reschedule the meeting for Feb 20. This is ONLY if the school is closed on the 6th.

Thank you and we hope to see you for our Biannual Pot Luck and Auction!

This is just an announcement regarding Saturday's meeting:

We are expecting a Nor'Easter to come through this weekend. However, at this time, the meeting is still on. Please watch this thread for information about whether or not we close. The plan at this moment is to still have the meeting if Asnuntuck is still open. If we close, we are going to try to get the 13th of February instead. Again, I will let you all know both here and on the Ravelry group, and you may receive a message from Greg via email. If you know someone who is a member but doesn't have a computer, please let them know the verdict. Thank you.

Since many Nutmeggers belong to NHA, I wanted to let you know what is going on with the NHA website. It is currently being transferred over to me since the former webmistress is unable to work on it anymore. Due to the transfer process, the site will be down for several days. Please pass this message on to any other NHA members you know, since I've already had some people ask me what happened to the site. It will be back soon!

ETA: The website is back up now, and much of the info has been updated. More changes will come over time but at least the site is back up. Thanks for your patience!

The info for December is up. I won't be at the meeting, and I will miss you all! Have a great time, everyone!

Hello all, As the forum wasn't being used very often, we decided to consolidate things and solely use the established forum on Ravelry. Ravelry's forum is much more focused to fiber enthusiasts and you have a world wide presence that you can use as a resource.

Here is a link to the Ravelry Forum: http://www.ravelry.com/groups/nutmeg-spinners-guild-forum

Check out our Next Meeting page to see the full description of our upcoming April meeting! It's going to be a fun, super-informative day with a great speaker. Also, there are instructions for non-members who are planning to make the trek to Enfield to see Abby. Please read them!

February's meeting was lovely, too. It was a nice way to get back in touch with some basic skills and we'll definitely do the Four Corners again. If you have an idea for future Four Corners meetings, please email me (Jenny Bannock) or talk to me during the meeting.

Thanks, everyone!

Since our weather has been pretty snowy this winter and our February meeting is coming up, this is just a reminder about how to know if we're having a meeting on a snow day. Should the forecast call for snow, or you're not sure if we're meeting, please call Asnuntuck to find out if they are open.

The snow line is here: 1.800.501.3967

If the building is open on Guild day, then you may assume we are having our meeting. If the building is closed due to inclement weather, the snow date for the meeting is February 14.

Check out our "Next Meeting" page to see what's in store for you this February! See you then!
