Annual Christmas Meal Scheduled

     One of Beaver Creek Storytellers' favorite events is the annual Christmas lunch. This year members have voted to have a Christmas dinner instead of lunch. It will be held at Ryan's as always on Friday, December 3, but at 6:30 p.m. instead of noon. Ryan's is on Euclid Avenue on the Virginia side of Bristol. 


     The BCS organization picks up the tab for everyone present. Each member may bring one guest. Donations received from monthly performances underwrite the expense.


Here's a picture of last year's luncheon.

The Freeman BarBQue

On August 29, Isaac Freeman, member of both Beaver Creek Storytellers and the Jonesborough Storytellers Guild invited all members to an end-of-summer BarBQue. Above is a photo of Connie Gill, President of JSG, with Isaac to her left. Slightly behind her is David Claunch, another storyteller.

About 30 members attended. Isaac, and his lovely wife Alice, entertained us at their farm out in the country near Marion, VA. Their log-cabin farmhouse is charming and in spite of some pop-up rain showers, we all had a great time. Isaac's home-made BarBQue is mouth watering.

General Meeting June 14

G. Lee called a general meeting for June 14 at the Bristol Public Library. Ten members attended--a pretty good turn-out for a Sunday afternoon.

G. Lee shared his plans which includes the Graveyard Tales performance on September 26. He intends to discontinue programs at Java J's and instead have regular performances at the library.
He hopes to get sponsorship from Friends of The Library.

He also has plans for conducting classes after the programs to invite the public to get more involved with our organization.

It was good to see everyone and have a chance to chat a bit.
