HINTS FROM LAKE MURRAY MOMS
   For little ones that are teething and take a pacifier, put the paci's in the freezer so it is nice and cold and feels good on sore mouths. This helpful tip has been brought to you by Lake Murray Moms. We are a local mom’s group that provides support for all moms in the Chapin and surrounding Lake Murray area. We have a monthly meeting/ social (at the Chapin Chamber). We also plan a monthly night out and play dates every week. We invite moms with children of all ages to visit our group. For more information, go to www.lakemurraymoms.com “We’ll put the wind back in your sails.”

POST 193 HONORS VIETNAM VETERANS
   Chapin American Legion Post 193 Riders escorted the Veterans of Vietnam War recently.  Veterans left Dorn VA hospital and rode to downtown Veterans Memorial Park for a laying of a wreath.  Governor Mark Sanford was guest speaker and Sheriff Leon Lott honored survivors at Dorn Medical Center.  The program was sponsored by South Carolina Combat Veterans Group and the Greater Columbia Chamber of Commerce.

SEE JUDY BOLTON JARRETT’S UPDATED WEBSITE
   www.judyjarrettgallery.com has been redesigned and updated and is now up and ready for your enjoyment!!  Webmaster, Buddy, also a drummer (!), and I are excited for you to see this new version.  We're also looking forward to your comments about the new format, as this is a gauge for future updates.  The music is there -- or not -- your choice!  
   Of course, every update is already outdated by the time it reaches you; there are already new paintings and schedule updates, and the best way to see those new paintings is to visit the gallery!!  Too, there's not space on the website to put EVERYTHING, so we have to make choices about what to include.  So hit that "contact" link and give your input.  
   REMINDER TO PUT TUESDAY, JUNE 1, ON YOUR CALENDAR -- YOU'RE INVITED TO THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION AT THE GALLERY FROM 5 UNTIL 9 PM!  More information soon...
   If you're on Facebook, please become a fan (a "like") of Judy Bolton Jarrett, ArtCan Studio Gallery.  Thank you again and again for your support of my painting habit!  I hope to see you or hear from you soon!   Artfully yours,  judy
