Sorry I haven't been updating this group, but the Crafty C.A.T.S. are still alive and well! We're meeting today, Thursday, Nov. 5 at 3 p.m. in the Citrus Room. We're going to be starting a new project knitting hats for chemotherapy patients at Sharp Cancer Center so come join us!

Just a reminder that we're meeting today at 3:00 p.m. in the Grove Room at the East Valley Branch Library. We have a lot of work to do today - Born to Read is coming up in May and we need to make 10 more baby beanies. Plus, I just heard about another great program where we can help people in Somalia, so I want to tell you all about that today.

We also need to make more bookmarks because they're still selling faster that we can make them! So if you're around please come today!

Joanna
