The Pretty Committee will show you how to create unique windchimes from old beads and wire.  If you have old beads, please feel free to bring them in. 

This program is for adults and older teens.

An informal spinning group focusing on drop spindle yarn method from wool and other fibers.  Beginners and more advanced spinners welcome.  Bring your own spindle and fiber, or if you are new to this ancient craft, contact us ahead so we can provide "loaners" to you (a small fee for wool used will be collected as arranged in advance).  Drop spindle spinning uses a lightweight spindle that is very portable, as opposed to a heavy and expensive spinning wheel.  Co-sponsored by the Friends of Hathorn House Historical Society.

Email us ahead of the meeting if you are new and need the loan of a spindle:  sgardner@rcls.org; at your first session, beginner's sample of wool will be available for $5.00

Participants will learn how to write customized resumes and cover letters that portray their skills and accomplishments and help land interviews.  They will also identify effective job search strategies, as well as prepare for traditional and behavioral interviews.  A $10 deposit is due at the time of registration.  It will be refunded at your appointment.  Space is limited.
