This month will bring our biannual auction. Nancy
McKee will once again serve as auctioneer. Members and guests can consign
as many as ten items each to the auction - if you have smaller items, they
can be put together in a box lot which will count as one item. There is no
limit on the number of donations. The auction will begin at 11:00 sharp.
Please bring a bag lunch - drinks and desserts
will be provided by our hostesses.
For those bringing items for auction, the doors
will open early at 9:30 a.m. to allow everyone to get registered and the
items displayed for review.
In advance of the meeting, please fill out a
5” x 7” card, as attached, for each of your items. Then, fill
out one more card with a combined list of all your
items. It will assist the
auctioneer greatly if you print or write neatly.
10% of the selling price will be going to the
Granite State Doll Club as commission. For non-members, there will be a 20%
commission on each item sold.

News and Notes
The Annual Meeting in April was a time for tradition and pageantry as
Brenda Thomas, UFDC Regional Director, installed our new officers. Many thanks go to Ellen Rule, our
outgoing President who did such an outstanding job and made it look easy,
which of course it isn’t. Congratulations to each of our new
officers. They are: Peg Farwell,
President; Dona Stripp, Vice President; Betty Bezanson, Recording
Secretary; and Linda Svok, Treasurer.
Thanks also to Zendelle
Bouchard who has done a magnificent job with newsletter these past four
years and leaves big shoes to fill.
We are pleased to welcome our
newest junior member, Hannah Cotelleso of Plymouth, Massachusetts,
granddaughter of member Barbara Nobrega, and a collector in her own right.
