Yes, Pittsburgh Lace Group meets in a church basement (one of their members is also a member of the congregation). They have a lockable cupboard and file cabinet in a classroom that they can store their library and meeting supplies (tea pot, paper goods, old meeting minutes and correspondence, etc.). The library is quite good for such a small group, because they "pass the can" at each meeting, and everyone attending contributes a dollar. It adds up, and is spent on books. I was never a member of Five Rivers, the other lace group in the area; I think they meet in several places, as their membership is rather spread out. Robin P.
