August 2024 Night Group: Below are some pics of Foothills Night group attendees.
February 2024: When Night Group meets at night – Our Feb. meeting needed to move for 1 month due to Marcia’s not being available, so we reserved a room at the Golden library. We had plenty of space, tables & chairs. Right after one member commented on how good the lighting was – the lights went out….. When the Librarians came to check on us (we were the only room in the library with no ’emergency’ lights), they were surprised at what they found. Stitching lights to the rescue! Claimed we were the best lit room in the building. Unfortunately we were only there long enough to get the business meeting done and not the workshop, as the library decided to close early due to unknown ETA of electricity.
