Old Business:

Laura, the previous treasurer has closed out our bank account and all records have been passed on to Lynn Healy the new treasurer.  Lynn will be opening a new acct soon.

New Business:

Our chapter is down to only 16 members.   We really need to figure out a way to attract new members.  This will be discussed again at the next meeting.

Good Luck to Keystone member T. Eire who will be moving out of state for a new job!

Speaker: George Davis – Sales Representative for Reed and Barton US Exclusive Distributor of Belleek Parian China.

• George brought a Belleek information packet for each member.  This packet contained several informative brochures including a very rare comprehensive brochure.
• Each member was given a Belleek ornament courtesy of George Davis
• George also brought 2 Belleek vases to raffle.  Jackie Kivlin and Kate O’Brien were the lucky winners.

A thank you is being mailed to both Royal Appointments, for letting us have our meeting at their store, and George Davis, for speaking to our group and giving us free Belleek merchandise.

 Next Meeting:  To be determined

We are currently looking into having our next meeting at QVC on St. Patty’s Day.  The Chapter participated in the Belleek St. Patty’s Day festivities on QVC last year and thought it might be fun to do it again this year.
