A short business meeting followed.

With holidays fast approaching members delighted in a program of gift ideas given by Linda Burns of Tignall, known to many as the "Basket Lady." Mrs. Burns gave members many tips as she showed gift baskets she designs. Baskets included items for babies, both boys and girls, housewarming, bon voyage, bridal couples, and basically every occasion one can imagine. A unique idea included the "I Love My Truck" basket filled with many car and truck cleaning supplies. At the close of her presentation Mrs. Burns presented the club a wall hanging with wildflowers. She also gave wall hanging door prize won by Mrs. Johnson.
