It is that time of the year. The hustle and bustle of the holidays can leave us feeling busy and frazzled. Take a moment, friends, to buy your tickets for the upcoming The Nutcracker concerts. There is nothing like sitting down to enjoy the beloved ballet with a child or grandchild to remind you of the magic of the season. We have had wonderful response to our request for volunteers to staff the Guild's Nutcracker Boutique. In fact, we have all the volunteers we need, which is a sign of the strength and involvement of the Guild's membership. Thank you so much for volunteering!

Our Fall Fundraising concert featuring pianist Wiley Skaret was a terrific success, also. We were able to donate to Wiley's foundation, as well as to add additional funds to support the ongoing work of the Guild. We have also recently completed our annual Membership Directory. They are in the mail to you. Make sure to hold on to it and use it to keep in touch with fellow Guild members.

Enjoy family, friends, and your love of music during the upcoming holiday season. Stay warm. Stay connected and we hope to see you at the Guild's holiday party, starting at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 17. RSVP here.  We will see you in December at the Deco Lounge inside the beautiful Fine Arts Center.

Most sincerely,
Hope Mena
Guild Board President

Another way to support the Nutcracker Boutique is through the buying of our first ever KINGS RAFFLE.  We have five gorgeous nutcrackers to raffle away and the price can't be beat.  A mere $20 buys  five opportunities to win one nutcracker or all five with retail values between $150-$200. 

Contact the raffle chair, Susan Callahan at smcall217@aol.com to purchase your tickets.  She can even fill out your information for you over the phone or email!
