Button, Button, Who's Got the Button?
Barbara Copeland does.  And if you have 30 of them, she'll show you how to make a button bracelet on March 5 at 1:00 p.m. during the Fiber Arts Group meeting. If interested, bring about 30 buttons of various sizes ( 1/2- 1"),  thread in a color of your choice, needle and scissors.  Barbara will provide the 1" black elastic that the buttons will be sewn onto. 
If you are not interested in the project, bring what you are currently working on, planning to start or come because you are just curious about the Fiber Arts Group. All are welcome.

Weeding in Progress
Thanks to Tom Cooke and Boyd Morse for their hard work in spraying the huge crop of weeds that have sprung up in our common areas. Thanks also to Bill Pratt our resident master mechanic who gave the gator it's annual tune up. EE is always proud of its weed-free look.

March Monday Morning Memos
If you read the MMM on the EE website rather than receiving it by email, please note: the March 9th & 16th memos will likely be posted later than the normal day & time--since the webmaster will be away until mid week, both weeks.  Email delivery of the memo will not be delayed, and the print copy posted on the Ramada bulletin board should appear as usual.
