September 2024

 At our meeting in September we had a lot to discuss regarding our rehoming situation and celebrating our 50th anniversary. It was decided to hold an Open House on Sunday 27th October as part of our celebrations. Each member was asked to submit at least 5 pieces of work for display showing various weaving and spinning techniques. Members were also invited to submit items for sale.

The rehousing committee was invited to a meeting with Pickering Council on Monday, 16th September to discuss options open to the guild once Greenwood Community Centre is decommissioned in June 2026.

As the agenda was very long there was no programme.
