Kristen Frantzen Orr will be
teaching at Southern Flames in November. Because there is a great
demand for the classes, students are selected by lottery for each of the
two classes. Kim Runge, Joan Theall Houghton, and
Carl Andrews are making the class lists as names are drawn from a
hat. (Photo by RS)

the logo that we have been using recently to identify Southern Flames.
The membership is being polled to determine whether this should be SF
Official logo or if we should have a contest to come up with a new logo.

Lansdowne. (Photo of Margo by BA; Photo of bracelet by J H-T))
