The July meeting was held at Wayne’s GJ clay on the 14th, members present were Ron Cloyd, Susan Wallace, Bob Walsh, Pat Feinberg, Joanie Post, Ashtonn Means, Deb Stewart, Wayne Petefish, and Lindaa McBride.
 
We will be firing Bob's glowworm kiln on the weekend of August 20-21.  This is a don't miss event, everyone should try and make it if you can.  Please start working on pieces you want to fire in this, keeping in mind that you will need to  use ^10 clay.  In case of weather issues, we will push the firing to the next weekend, the 27-28.  Bob has put out a call for kiln buttons if you have time to make a few.  They should be about 2  to 2 1/2 in diameter, with a heavy clay loop on the back.  Don't want the kind with holes, the wire burns away too quickly in those.  Any questions you can check with me or Bob.
This month’s activity was a show and discussion of lidded pieces.
