From your President
Dear Ladies,
A big Thank You to Alise for teaching us such a great
piece. She is one of our favorite teachers and can
always present us with such great projects.
I hope all you had a very nice Valentine’s Day with nice
chocolates and red roses.
Here we are approaching March. Time is really flying
by. I am sure you are looking forward to Nancy’s
Class. It certainly is a pretty piece. I understand we
have 19 people signed to take the class. Be sure
and get your pieces all prepped and be ready to go.
I must remind you, we are trying to raise money to ob-
tain good teachers for classes. We NEED YOU to
sign up for ONLY 2 & ½ hours to sit at a table and sell
tickets for a raffle at the fair. BE SURE to get in
touch with Mary to sign up or DO IT at the class on
March 7th. You can find Mary’s number in the
Newsletter. We will not be selling anything but tickets.
In case you don’t know, we are raffling off a
Rooster painted by Ginny and Nancy on a churn.
Be sure you sign up for the April class with Ginny. It is
the only oil class we have scheduled for this
Year. Hope to see you March 7th.

From 1st Vice President—Workshop Chair
Everyone enjoyed the Lighthouse on Music Sheet
class. We especially want to thank Alise for teaching us
the class since she had just gotten out of the hospital
that week and was not fully recovered.
We are looking forward to the March 7th workshop with
Nancy. The project will be “Winter’s Eve
Sled.” Thank you Nancy for being kind enough to give
us a demonstration of the preparations for the oval por-
tion of the project. We have 19 signed up for this class.
Ginny will be teaching an oil painting class of “Spring
is Here” on April 4th. So far we have 10 people signed
up for this class. The registration form is in the news-
letter.
Lucille Dickinson will be teaching an acrylic painting
on May 2nd. Lucille provided a sample painting for
us. I call it “Seaside Gallery.” I will have the sample at
the March 7th class.
I am going to be out of town for a couple of months. In
my absence Jan Nichols has graciously agreed to take
over my duties as 1st VP. Please contact Jan to sign
up for classes. Thank you Jan. I really appreciate your
help.

PALM COAST DECORATIVE PAINTERS CHAPTER MEETING
February 7, 2015
The meeting was called to order by President, Judy Beuchert at 9
am.
Officers Present: Judy Beuchert, Linda Doup, Lana Raymond,
Georgia Strein, Ruth McDonald, Barbara Jacobs and Mary Chumley
Minutes of the previous meeting were approved as published in the
newsletter.
Treasurer, Ruth MacDonald reported a current balance of $ 3665.78.
The annual Treasurer’s report is complete and the checkbook has
been balanced. Ruth has indicated the club accounting books are
always available for individual review at all club meetings.
OFFICER & COMMITTEE REPORTS:
Workshop Chair, Lana Raymond, reminded everyone of sign up for
the March and April workshops; examples of the up-coming pro-
jects were available. Lana will also provide a list of set-up, clean-up
and snacks for the next meeting to Noreen Walker at the end of each
meeting.
Lana also stated the contract with Pat Smelkoff for the August meet-
ing has been signed. The project is an acrylic, titled, “At the
Dock”.
Membership Chair, Barbara Jacobs, stated the chapter has 31 paid
members. Barb also provided a preliminary membership roster and
asked all members to review and make any corrections so a current
club roster can be sent to members.
Newsletter editor, Georgia Strein was asked by Mary Chumley to
reprint the information regarding the Flagler County Fair. The Feb-
ruary newsletter incorrectly stated:
“Remember to put on your calendar the Flagler
County Fair. It will start on April 9th at the fair-
ground. We will need volunteers to work for a 2 l/2
hour period. We are only selling chances for a
wooden churn with a rooster painted by Ginny and
Nancy. “
The correction should indicate the correct date is April 1.
Mary also requested the fair dates and volunteer informa-
tion be re-printed in the March newsletter. Georgia will re-print corrections.
Ways & Means Chair, Mary Chumley, reminded everyone of the
Flagler County Fair dates and the need to have volunteers sign-up to
sell raffle tickets for the butter churn. Ginny stated there would only
be one table. A list of available dates and times was circulated for
volunteer sign up; each volunteer will sign up for 2.5 hr. sessions. A
parking pass will be provided to individuals volunteering. Mary
also provided an information flyer to each member and requested
they be distributed. Contact Mary for needed dates and times to
support this event.
.
Judy asked for ideas on how to increase membership and fund rais-
ing. Suggestions included Craft fair at the Knights of Columbus
and participating in a fashion show for a local boutique.
Directory Committee Chair, Lee Fasnacht is updating the directory.
If any member is in need of an up-dated version and/ or new mem-
bers should contact Lee.
Hospitality Committee Chair, Noreen Walker will receive a list
from Lana at the end of each Chapter meeting of volunteers assist-
ing with set-up, snacks and clean-up for each Chapter meeting.
Kudos to Noreen for her excellent preparation of our Chapter meet-
ings.
Website and Kids boxes Chair, Ginny Wiegand stated the website
is up to date. Ginny stressed the need to begin our annual project
of Kids Boxes. Members donating five (5) boxes will receive a
$15.00 certificate toward cost of a future workshop. Ginny also
suggested each month members focus on specific items for dona-
tion. For the March Chapter meeting, requested items are hair
items (combs, brushes, hairbands) for girls and toiletry items
(shaving cream, deodorants, no razors) for boys,
There was no Old Business.
New Business
Christmas Party-Judy asked the attending membership for a prefer-
ence in dates for the Christmas Party. The proposed dates were
December 5 (the first Saturday) or December 12 (the second Satur-
day). By a show of hands, the vote of 13 – 3, voted to have the
Christmas Party on December 5.
Show & Tell- Alise Duerr, instructor for the February chapter
meeting, showed her recent work in Acrylic and Colored Pencil.
She also brought patterns for purchase.
Next meeting date-March 7, 2015
