Upcoming Events - Cocoa Beach Woman's Club

I'm really looking forward to seeing those projects you will enter in our Arts and Crafts Competition. Eligible work must be completed between January 1 and December 31, 2009. Our Club competition will be February 4, 2010 at our regular meeting. There are a multitude of categories in both the crafts and the arts division. Contact Julia for more detailed guidelines. ALSO, I would like any feedback you have about someone you know, who is NOT a club member, who would be qualified to assist with judging. Thanks and happy crafting!

The Artful Bra Project. The creating has begun and some of the ladies have already made cute/pretty works of art. But we could use more, especially since we will use the decorated bras as table centerpieces at our January Fashion show. Remember, it has to be a 36C, padded bra decorated on the outside, inside and straps. This is a chance to get really creative! I'm also still collecting paper towel rolls. Again, this is to heighten awareness about breast cancer, but is also lots of fun. If you need some ideas or help, or want some clarification, contact Julia George at 868-7393. The website of the South Carolina group this idea came from is http://www.quiltersofsc.org/artfullbras/artfullbras.htm

Something new at the December meeting...once again we will have a couple of fundraisers for the FFWC State President's Project, Heifer International. All the money we raise will go towards providing families both an animal, and the necessary knowledge, to help them improve their standard of living. One of the activities we will do is known as a reverse raffle. There will be a detailed explanation at the luncheon, but let’s just say, this is one raffle you might NOT want to win. We are looking forward to a tasty meal and some good laughs, so make sure to bring a friend. Advanced confirmations would be appreciated.
