Hi:

This is just to update the organization on our recent stretch of new members.  We are now sitting at 6 new Founding Members in the last few months!  In addition our Stitch Together Beginner's Class has two new enrollees!  We are very thankful for the faith being put in us and we are hopeful, this is just the beginning of our growth period.  We also thank our new members because our mailing of their membership packet was delayed (due to a delay in receiving our embosser).  I'm happy to report our membership packets went into the mail today.  Happiest stitching to all of our new and existing members!

Hello:

April's edition has been created and is small, but is a good first stab at a newsletter.  For now we will be sending this edition with the welcome packets we will be creating.  If you have recently joined, be sure to look for the edition in your packet and please provide feedback on what other articles you would like to see in the newsletter.

Incidentally, if you are interested in creating a new chapter near to you, please contact our Executive Director, Jeff Reine.  His direct email for now is wobberjankle@outlook.com.

The NACSA has taken another step toward becoming a hub for cross stitch information and conservation!  The NACSA web site (www.noamcsa.org) is now live.  So far, we have had a hiccup in getting our payments processor on board, so payments and donations are not possible right now.  This is scheduled to be overcome by next week, assuming they accept the verification letter we have provided.

The board of the NACSA looks forward to serving our entire membership as soon as we can!

As of August of 2024 we are awaiting notice from the IRS that our application for tax exemption has been approved and accepted.
