November 2009: Message from the President

Dear Members,

Many members have just returned from our exciting, information-packed Annual Meeting in Bristol, England. A special thanks to Sue and Frank Wagstaff for planning and organizing a highly memorable and successful event!

With the future release on the TCC web site of our Annual Meeting Bulletin, due in early December, you will learn all of the details of this meeting along with the fantastic Anniversary Ceramics Tour of England and Wales that preceded the annual event.

But I can't wait until December to share with you this special news item: At the annual meeting in Bristol England, Robert Copeland, a long-standing contributor to the TCC, was recognized for his outstanding contribution to the field of ceramics by bestowing on him the club's first and only Life-Time Honorary Membership.
