Our next meeting is Tuesday, October 9, 2018 at 7:00 PM. We will begin with a short business meeting, followed by refreshments and socializing, and then our program. It’s our ANNUAL AUCTION!!! Rules are listed below and will be included, along with auction slips, in the next bulletin. There are always some wonderful pieces (and some great bargains) to be had at this event. There will be NO silent auction at this meeting.
We meet in the dining room of the Bristol Senior Center, 240 Stafford Ave. in Bristol.
Hope to see you there!
