Grab a beverage and have a seat.  

Let’s chat a bit. Long, hot summer…..recent rains, and school has started back….. Memories of the best, sweet tea brewed by a friend in her microwave. Heaven in a glass of ice with mint from the back yard – Like my mother, have mint in flower beds.

Let’s talk beverages.  

Memories of my grandmother about one mile away teaching us grandkids how to drink POP out of a glass bottle merge with my excitement of a new Starbucks being built a few minutes from my front door. Back in the 1950’s all POP came in tall glass bottles be it Grapette, Orange, or Dr. Pepper. Summertime has cold beverages, nowadays in plastic or metal.

What is happening in Oklahoma. 

Festival season is in our rear view mirrors with State Festival on April 29 at ECU in Ada. Music teachers boarded with Vivace for our 2023 Festival Season. Not all states can say that. June & July kept us busy with State Convention, NFMC Convention, and Federation Days in Eureka Springs. Every event exceeded our expectations. The BOD Fall Board Meeting will be held via Zoom in September. Dues Remittance forms are due in November. Several clubs met the State President’s Challenge by gaining 2 new members!! Keep the growth going!!

Before long State Convention photos will be added to our website along with other updates.

Closing with words from singer Judy Garland.

“Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could all be a little more gentle with each other.”
