The Executive was busy finalizing the 70th – 71st Annual that was being held on Zoom on May 8th. This Zoom Annual went very well and we were able to stay within the planed time of two hours. We would like to thank Stanley Major from Sea Leather Wear for his demonstration on the use of Fish Skin Leather and the various ideas that Fish Skin Leather can be used for. Visit him on the internet at Sea Leather Wear.

Please see the last page of the Newsletter for links to pictures of the items that were judge for this Annual.

We held an Executive meeting the end of May to wrap up any outstanding business before we broke for June, July and August. Our next Executive meeting will be held in September.
