If you have DVD's borrowed during this stay at home time, no worries...just return it for no additional fees at our next in person meeting!

Don't forget about our DVD Lending Library!  For only $3 a disc, you can borrow it for a month of education in the comfort of your own home.  Our goal is to continue to weed out old/unused DVDs and purchase new ones for all to use.  So look for that, and possible mini fundraisers to be able to purchase more DVDs.   Download the list:  2018_05_NMWS-SC DVDs.pdf 

The  DVD Librarian is now Nancy Tipton who will have videos at each month's meeting for you to use and return the next month.  Contact Nancy at nancytipton889 [at] yahoo.com  to suggest titles  to purchase for our library.
