Hello folks,

Paul suggested to me that some of you folks might be interested in this
message I previously posted to our neighbourhood association:

A week or so ago  I found out that
Wisteria Crafter's
Collective was in danger of shutting down operations
due to financial
difficulties and consequent inability to maintain
enough staff hours to
be viable. This would be a shame, we felt, as it is
a very friendly and
attractive store to have in our neighbourhood. I
spoke with Erica
Butler, who said that she would try to work out a
deal with the landlord
to allow them to hold on. I told Erica that I would
check with members
of the neighbourhood association to see if.

1. any of our artists or craftspeople wanted to join
the co-op
2. failing that, if any others felt they could
devote an hour or two per
week to working there as volunteers.

Actually, if you do join it looks like a pretty good
deal. Doing a few
volunteer hours could be fun also. Here follows
Erica's announcement:

WISTERIA CRAFTER'S COLLECTIVE NEEDS YOU!

Wisteria Crafter's Collective (2393 Agricola) is a
cooperatively run
craft
store, where members share the work in order to get
a greater return on
their sales.
Wisteria needs new members and volunteers to help
keep the shop running
this fall.  If you can spare an afternoon or two to
work in the shop, or

helping in any other way, your time would be greatly
appreciated!!
Please
call Erica at 431-9936 to volunteer.
If you're a craftsperson interested in joining
Wisteria, here's how it
works.  You take home 80% of your sales, and are
responsible for working

two days in the shop every month.  That's it.  No
fees!!
We need people for September, so if you think you
might be interested,
call
Erica today at 431-9936.

Thanks!
