Meetings and Activities

Membership in the Gateway Chapter of the American Needlepoint Guild is open to all needlepointers from beginning to professional. Prospective members may attend two membership meetings before being asked to pay dues. Guests are welcome at any meeting. For more information about our meetings, contact our membership chair.
Monthly Meetings
- Meetings are held once a month at Ladue Chapel. Morning and evening meetings are the third Thursday of the month. Morning meetings are at 9:30 am and evening meetings are at 6:30 pm. Members who attend the evening meeting gather for dinner at Schneidhorst’s Kaffe Haus at 5 PM. Click here for a listing of the 2008-2009 meeting programs.
- In case of bad weather, meetings and stitch-ins may be canceled. Chapter officers will make every effort to notify all members by phone. If we don't reach you, please call the Chapter President or another chapter officer to verify a meeting cancelation.
Continuing Programs
- Monthly Show and Tell -- Remember to bring works in progress and finished projects to share with members in our monthly Show and Tell. What project are you currently stitching on? Please bring work to show off.
- Member Challenge-- The rules are simple - just show up at any chapter event, get a red ticket, write your name on the back and put it into the official blue zippered pouch. At the spring luncheon, we'll draw one ticket from the pouch and the person whose name is on that ticket will get a free local ANG membership for one year - a $22.00 value! The president is the keeper of the tickets and the pouch, so the next time you come to a meeting, a workshop, a fundraiser or anything else sponsored by the chapter, don't forget to sign your ticket.
All members with an email address receive a monthly event calendar at the beginning of each month. To receive this message, send your e-mail address to the Webmaster.
Send your address changes to the membership chair.
To participate in a course, workshop, program or other project but can't attend? Contact the program chair. If acceptable to the instructor, the kit, instructions, or supplies can be mailed to members for a fee to cover postage.
