So I have some amazing news - we have a new Executive Director: the amazing Suzanne Atkinson! I am so happy because Suzanne has been with us since the very beginning, at all of the packing nights, collecting from different knitters, visiting the yarn stores for pick-ups and moderating the revelry group. I'm so excited that she has signed on for this job - yay, Suzanne! As for me, I'll still be at packing night, and I will support S through the transition. I might even (gulp) knit something for the project - socks, hat, neck-warmer, anybody's guess.
So we've got 3 boxes packed and ready to go (Jeanine, its about 120 pounds), up with our amazing doctors to Iqaluit. We've hopefully got another box going up as well with another visitor from the North. And finally, I'll be dropping all of the blankets and knitting supplies off at Larga as soon as possible.
All that to say the next posting you will see will be from the fabulous Suzanne.
More news:
Yarn Forward in Ottawa will be closing its doors this summer, so if you dropped off there, we're hoping that you can either drop off or mail to the NEW Warm Hands addy:
