Meeting Volunteers
Thank you to the generous volunteers that help us set up, greet visitors, bring snacks, and put away chairs and tables. You make it possible for meetings to go swiftly!
Kim Winter, our lovely volunteer coordinator, is always looking for volunteers.
Pre-meeting set up and post-meeting clean up are areas we need help in. If you're around after a meeting and able-bodied, feel free to jump in and help put away chairs if you can. No need to confirm ahead of time for clean up. Thank you.
Please email Kim at puddletownvolunteercoordinator@gmail.com if you're interested.

By Hand Serial Issue 10
In Issue #10 of By Hand Serial, we travel Montana’s Big Sky Country, from Bozeman’s Paradise Valley to Flathead and Swan Lakes, from Glacier National Park to Swan Lake, and from Missoula’s Bitterroot Valley to the peaks of the Sapphire Mountains.
Join us in exploring Montana through the eyes of a scratch sourdough bread baker; a father and son team who has built wooden canoes by hand for almost fifty years; textile, yarn, fiber, and macrame artists; a sewist who creates rugged bags built for adventure from waxed canvas and Pendleton wools; and a jeweler who uses reclaimed metal and stones mined from the earth to create unique pieces of wearable art.
