Warren Life Member Club Hug-A-Bear Workshop

The Warren Life Member Club held a Hug-A-Bear Workshop on June 15th at the American Legion Hall in Hackettstown, NJ.  Fifteen Members and Partners attended the workshop including 2 Granddaughters of one of the Members, who were home from college.

 Members brought home baked goodies and coffee, ribbons, pins, fiberfill, sewn bears,  and everyone sat around the table eating, stuffing Hug-A-Bears and enjoying good old fashion Pioneer fellowship.

The hours passed so quickly, no one realized how late it really was, and by the time they closed up, 106 completed Hug-A-Bears sat proudly on the table before them, and they were already planning their next workshop.

Most of the Hug-A-Bears will be donated to the Morristown Council, and some to the H. G. McCully Chapter, but some special ones will be kept to put a handmade bookmark with (another of the Clubs projects) and given to children in need in the Warren County, NJ area.

Anyone wishing to attend a future Hug-A-Bear or Bookmark Workshop may contact Barbara Hamilton at (973) 726-7676.

Bookmark Workshop

Verizon Pioneers McCully Upstate Chapter 12 held a Chapter Bookmark workshop on Saturday, March 28, 2009 at 175 Park Avenue, in Madison NJ, from 9:30 am till 2:00 pm.  There was a good turnout with 28 members, Life members, and partners in attendance.  All four Councils and four Life member clubs were represented.  We are still awaiting the final tally to determine the total number of bookmarks produced.

Members enjoyed fellowship, conversation and laughter as they shared materials and creative ideas.   Continental breakfast was provided for all attendees.
Many said they would enjoy attending another workshop later in the year.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to all who joined in and donated their time and talent to contribute to the overall success of the project. Special thanks to the "Coffee Club" for providing the breakfast goodies, to the Education Committee for organizing the project, and to Morristown Council for setting up the location.
