PAINT:
We try to keep a nice supply of paint on our shelves at our Chapter meeting location and will be asking for donations of specific colors that we find are running low.  If you see a paint color that you know we are in need of please email me at
pjallard@earthlink.net and I will put a request out for someone to donate that color.

Currently we are in need of:
Americana Baby Blue
Ceramcoat Wild Rice


RAFFLES:
It's so much fun to win a raffle, isn't it!!! 

If you have any new or like new books, packets, surfaces, or painting supplies that are in the current trends that you know you won't be using...we would love to have you donate them to our Raffle.  Just bring them in on our Chapter meeting day and turn them over to our Raffle Chair and she will make sure they are raffled off with lots of TLC. test

If you find a website that offers great tips, techniques or tutorials please send them to me and I will post them.  One will be posted here and then moved to Our Favorite Links page after we have viewed it for a while...so please send me any great websites that you would like to see listed.  Thanks.
