Initiation

We have four new members this year: Jen, Hillary, Loni and Connie. We are always excited to have new members and luckily our new members are good natured. Initiation is a must, so of course our novice members as well as some of the veterans had to do our make your self sneeze trick. Everyone was given a hair pin to stick in their nose to make them sneeze and the first to sneeze is the winner. Congrats to Jen for rocking it, she concentrated so hard to do and was our winner.

2008 Swiss Days

This year we have been invited to stay at Loni's (a new member) cabin in Park City. I am told that sleeping space is limited, UNLESS some of us wouldn't mind sleeping out on the deck that overlooks the beautiful landscape. Besides who really sleeps anyway? So if you don't mind sleeping somewhere other than on a bed please let us know. We will provide you with a map to find the cabin at a later date.

The cost for lodging, drinks, snacks and food at the cabin will be $18.

 We ask that you please have your money to us no later than August 20th.

Itinerary:

Thursday-

We will be going up to the cabin at approx. 7:00 (we will grab dinner on our way up)

-Initiation of new members

-Reading of the Association of Sisters and Friends pledge

-Games with prizes

Friday-

Head up to Swiss Days in Midway first thing in the morning

-Eat breakfast at Swiss Days

-Eat a Swiss taco for lunch (of course, this is tradition)

-Shop till we can't possibly fit another thing in any of the cars

-Dinner back at the cabin

Saturday-

We may need to go back up to Swiss Days for purchases that some have made that others are jealous of, have to have or just want really bad. So we may do that or here are some other options: Shop at the outlets in Park City or play games

Please vote if you are interested in doing a craft this year, if so we will get that planned and let you know the cost. (There is a spot to vote on the left hand side of this blog)
