| Details: | Is there anyone else who had Christmas projects or gifts they wanted to make last year and did NOT get them finished? I sure did! I'd like to be more productive this year and be ready ahead of time instead of waiting until November and burning the midnight oil! I'm going to structure this club, just as we do the UFO's Friday Afternoon Club, where goal setting is a must! The club will run from March to November, and if we are attentive to our goals, we should have some Christmas projects and gifts ready for celebrating the season come December 2019!
General Rules of the club: Every month we set a goal of what we will achieve the following month. Each goal will be worth 1 point. You may set up to 5 goals per month. For each monthly goal you achieve, you will receive a ticket. (5 goals met= 5 tickets) The ticket will be used for a drawing at the end of November. For the next six months, there will be a minimum of 12 possible prizes to win, including fabric, gift certificates, gift packages, notions, patterns, etc. to just name a few ideas. In November, your tickets will have your name on them and go into a drawing basket, at which time, we will draw for prizes! For each monthly goal not achieved, you will be required to pay $5.00 per unmet goal, which will go into our piggy bank to help support the prizes and cash prizes we draw for in November. (1 unmet goal = $5.00, 2 unmet goals = $10, 3 unmet goals = $15 etc.) Creekside Quilting will donate the remainder of the prizes to meet the minimum 12 prizes. The more goals achieved, the more tickets you have and the more chances you will have at winning prizes. Each member of the group is responsible for coming to the Countdown to Christmas Club on the first Sunday of the month. If you are unable to attend, in order to avoid paying the $5.00 per each unmet goal, you may: Email Karen Steggerda at sienagraceproductions@gmail.com with the reason for missing, a picture of your completed goals, and a statement of what your next month’s goal will be Or text Karen Steggerda at (515)778-4329 with the reason for missing, a picture of your completed goals, and a statement of what your next month’s goal will be Or send a picture with your friend from the group for them to share and a statement of what your next month’s goal will be. If you are unable to come to the club meeting, and did not make your goals, your money will be collected at the next month’s meeting. Karen will keep a monthly list of attendees and the goals they set for the next month. Karen will also keep an envelope for all collected prize money, along with a written list for review. In order for this to be fun and successful for everyone, we encourage no more than 1 missed meeting over the next 6 months. |
