Presidents Message
WOW! We are midway through 2019. Which means it is time to start thinking of 2020! This is my third
year as President and I am looking forward to the end of my term. I am ready to attend our gatherings as
a “Member”. We need three members to serve on the Nomination Committee, please volunteer! Once
that committee is filled, we need each of you to consider to serve as 2020 President, VP of Programs, VP
of Membership, Secretary or Treasurer? Every one of us has the knowledge to serve in any of the
positions for PWP.

In May, I attended SDP Convention with Dee DeLorenzo in Wichita,
Kansas. It was a wonderful time! Sadly, it was the last Annual
Convention for SDP. They hope to have some Regional Conventions
and a big Convention for the 50th year in three years.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend our July General Meeting. I
will be traveling to North Carolina with my husband for a Woodturning
Symposium. It is only fair that I support him since he traveled to
Daytona Beach in 2018 for SDP Convention.
Dee DeLorenzo will be leading the
meeting and I’m sure she will share
a few highlights from Convention. I am sad that I will not be able to
make Hattie’s Christmas Box ☹
Hope to see you at an upcoming meeting. Bring a friend!

SDP Annual Convention in Wichita, Kansas
Linda Kapp and Dee DeLorenzo 2019
Keeper of the Plains
The first two pictures are of the Keeper of the Plains where the Arkansas and Little
Arkansas River come together. Every night at 9pm, they light the Keeper of the Plains
with fire. Unfortunately, the night that Dee walked up to see it, the weather didn’t permit it
to be lit. The third photo is the Keeper of the Plains that was painted by people in
attendance of the convention. It will be placed at a dog park in Wichita, it is covered with
colorful puppy dogs.
Over 200 painted backpacks were donated to St Francis Ministries in Wichita during the Chapters
Gathering of the 2019 SDP Convention.

MEMORY BOX Program The Memory Box Artist Program Inc., began in June of
1998. The memory boxes are either painted or decorated
then given to a family who has suffered the loss of a
newborn. The boxes can be filled with mementos of the
lost child, i.e. footprints, lock of hair, etc. You can view
additional information at www.memoryboxes.org.
Penns Woods Painters has participated in this program
for numerous years. We take one day a year to paint
memory boxes as a group. Throughout the year
members paint boxes at their leisure to be donated to the
program. The majority of the boxes are donated to the
local Pinnacle Health Organization.
Our current inventory, 39 unpainted boxes and 46 painted boxes. We recently
received a request from Pinnacle Health for larger boxes, they are stocked up
on the small boxes. My ask for the remainder of this year is to paint either a
medium or large sized box since our on inventory of large boxes is just about
depleted.
