Happy New Year! I wish for each of you prosperity in all your efforts.

 

Our year looks especially abundant with symposia, workshops, and meetings rich in content and shared opportunity. I would encourage you to attend and experience the benefits.

 

To those of you in our various committees, I would like to thank you for your dedicated time, insight and hard work that bring us so much. Each of you who tirelessly gives of your resources to provide our events and services throughout the year deserves so much and builds a debt of gratitude we can never fully repay. However, our growing community is clearly a tribute to the value each of you has given.

 

The February membership meeting is primarily dedicated to building support for our existing committees and establishing new ones that better serve our growing needs and interests. Please come and participate.

Come see the Northwest Stone Sculptors display garden and exhibition booth at the 1997 Flower and Garden Show at the Seattle Convention Center.

 

See you soon!

Rich Hestekind
