Chris P welcomed 11 members to the Otawhao-Takapau WI November meeting at St Mark’s Church in Takapau.
The WI had a stall outside Takapau Arts and Crafts on their open day. Chris thanked the group for the impressive amount of baking. Most of it was sold, and what wasn’t soldwent to the Takapau Health Centre and members.
Lyla K bought along a small dress made by a WI member many years ago. It was made out of Lisle stockings. Lyla also bought a Christmas card to sign that is destined for a Otawhao-Takapau WI link in England.
Otawhao-Takapau WI is going to the Paper Mulberry for its Christmas meeting.
The CHB Federation Christmas celebration lunch will be at the Tikokino Hotel.
