We realize that starting off with a new Historian (Rolanda Tovey) taking over with her photos of our guild memories, we really have to thank the previous 2 Historians for all their work. We have had Deborah Grant for a couple of years and then Brenda Newman was the photographer before that. We are very grateful for their work, so that we can go back and look at projects!
First up! Our guild has a 'golden needle' that is passed from one president to the next in honour of her/his position (this needle is sometimes part of a hilarious story about how the president places it in a safe spot but then has to locate it to pass on to the next president!). These images show the needle and then Freda B. handing it to new president Pat Mac.
