Ogden, Utah December 2008 Dear Ladies, December is here already. This year has gone by so fast. I want to thank everyone for two wonderful years serving as your Chapter President. This is a great Chapter with many dedicated painters. Thank you Terry for teaching in November. You’re a great teacher, the project was beautiful and the class was great fun. On January 10th, Carol Wilson will be teaching the "Birthday Music Box." She said her grandchildren love it when they come to visit. This should be a fun class. We have two Seminars planned for this coming year. One with Ronnie Bringle and the other with Bobbie Takashima. Both are extremely talented teachers and we are fortunate to have them teach at our Chapter. Let’s get our dues paid, sign up for the seminars and support them. Our Christmas Party will be held in the Roy Senior Center at 1:00 on December 6th. CarolAnn has a lot of fun games planned and some surprises under her HAT! Come join us for some fun. Please join me in welcoming the 2009 Board Members. Rebecca Chaffee, President; Glenda Mitchell, Vice President; Tirzah Probasco, Second Vice President; Terry Pulver, Newsletter Editor; CarolAnn Smith, Treasure and Mickey Hutchinson, Secretary. I’m sure they will do a great job. I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Nancy |

Birthday Music Box
March Ronnie Bringle Seminar
Ronnie Bringle's love with Decorative Painting began nearly 40 year ago when she visited
a friend and saw her work. When she moved to Washington and could no longer find a teacher,
she decided she would teach. Ronnie spent most of her early years trying to keep ahead of
her students. She switched from painting in oils to acrylics in 1985 and while she says she
still misses oils, she feels more confident with acrylics because of the time she has spent
practicing with them. Ronnie has taught in everything from college extension classes to craft
shops, SDP and other conventions, and her home studio. She has been teaching seminars throughout
the U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand for the last 17 years. She labels her style of
painting as "Ameri-Country". And says her favorite part of painting is teaching.
Apples on the Vine
Seminar: A $20 non-refundable deposit must be paid when you
sign up to hold your place in the class. If you wish the Chapter to order the pedestal
bowl, please let us know no later than January 31st so that we have time to order it.
The bowl must be paid-in-full before it can be ordered. The balance for the seminar
is to be paid when the pattern and/or bowl are picked up.
Bramble Bunny
Seminar: A $20 non-refundable deposit must be paid when you
sign up to hold your place in the class. The balance for the seminar is to be paid when the
pattern is picked up. Note: If you have a basket that needs a lid, contact one of
the Board members and we will help you find a woodcrafter to custom cut a lid.
Lunchs are included in the seminar price. All lunches will include bottled
water and dessert. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate will be provided during the
seminar.
Contact Nancy (621-7564) if you have any questions about the
seminar. Checks can be made out to Golden Spike Decorative Painters and mailed
to the chapter at 1037 W 4600 S, Riverdale Ut 84405.
Dues
Yes, it's that time of year again. I'm sure most of you have received notice from SDP
about your national membership renewal with you last Decorative Painters magazine. National
dues need to be postmarked before December 1st to avoid their $5 postage/handling fee.
(Pay SDP dues directly to the Society.) Please pay your local dues ($15) to the treasurer
by December 1st to avoid our $5 late penalty. Checks can be made out to Golden Spike
Decorative Painters and mailed to the Chapter at 1037 W. 4600 So., Riverdale, Ut 84405.
Senior Center
Thank you Marla for teaching in November. We really need teachers for next year. Please
help the Chapter by signing up for one month in the comming year. The seniors are fun to work
with and enjoy doing just about anything. Call me (Cathy Jensen 475-7711) if you can teach a
class.
