Our card...Come and join us!

March 10, 2016

Wow! It's been a while since the last post. Lots of things have happened.

We are no longer meeting at the Blairstown Community Center and haven't been
for quite a while. 
When the BCCenter on East Avenue was demolished we lost our weekly "home" 
for quite a few months.

The Catherine Dickson Library on Lambert Road in Blairstown came to our 
rescue!
We have been meeting at the library every Tuesday from 9:30am to 12noon and enjoy
the staff's company and hospitality.  Here's to a long relationship!

Blairstown Clean Community Day

For the 2nd time...members of the North Warren KnitWits gathered at Footbridge Park in Blairstown to clean up.

We had fun...and also knew that we would be receiving funds from the township to buy yarn, yarn, yarn! Every little bit helps!

Then we all gathered for breakfast at the diner.
