Our June meeting will be on June 25th, at the condo. For our members who aren’t sure what that means or need more information, please check your newsletter. For anyone new wishing to attend a meeting and would like to know where to go, please contact us, and we’ll fill you in on where to go. The meeting will be at a slightly different time this month, and we ask that you arrive for around 12:30pm. We hope to see you there!

April Meeting
Things are a little different this month, including the meeting date, which is on the 30th. This month the meeting will also be at the Selkirk Lounge at Red River College – Notre Dame campus. You can come for 1:00pm, and the meeting will start at our usual time of 1:30.
The best place to park is the parking lot off of Dalton Crescent, which is the bus loop entrance, in front of Building A. Then you go and enter the the main level of Building C. Security is right inside those doors, and from there, you immediately take the stairs/elevator down to the Mall Level. There will be signs helping to direct you to the elevator to A Building. Then you’ll need to take the elevator (or stairs) to the main level/first floor. You’ll see one last sign that will guide your way to the Selkirk Lounge.
If you’re still feeling lost on where to go, feel free to contact us.
If you’d like something to drink at the meeting, please bring your own beverage.
We hope to see you there! Maybe you’ll even bring a few of your Doll Extravaganza finds to show off!

Disney ily 4EVER Dolls
Disney has come out with new Disney bounding dolls, dolls that are inspired by different Disney Princesses. Their outfits and accessories all feature details that let you know which Princess they’re a fan of and their outfits are inspired by. So far there are six dolls in the collection, each inspired by a different Princess (Tiana, Cinderella, Snow White, Belle, Ariel and Jasmine), and there is also a large assortment of not only fashion packs you can get, that also feature some of the other Princesses, but also accessory packs. Each doll also comes with a Mickey Mouse balloon, which has a surprise inside each one.

We’re hoping to see you there! And if you’re new here, and still debating if you want to go….please come, we would love to meet you, and I swear we don’t bite! Neither do the dolls.
Howliday Valentine’s Edition
Monster High have released another howliday edition doll, like the holiday themed Draculaura, but this time it’s a Valentine’s Day two pack of Cleo and Deuce. It features the more original looking monsters, as opposed to the new generation of them that you see in stores today. If you look closely, you’ll notice there’s even a skulette shaped box of…ahem, chocolates, that look like a spider web, scarab, and a coffin. And a Valentine’s Day card, saying Be My Creepy Valentine, to go along with the chocolates, flower and balloon. Now if that’s not monster love, then I don’t know what is…
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Happy Valentine’s Day, to all the doll lovers out there!
I was going to share a cute doll related Valentine’s card, but I came across these and they were too cute not to share. If you haven’t heard of them, they are the Na! Na! Na! Surprise dolls, which are cloth dolls, or mostly cloth dolls, that are both printed and embroidered. These ones have a conversation hearts candy kind of theme. The collection is called Sweetest Hearts.
February Meeting
Hey guys and gals, our meeting will be on February 26th, at the Salisbury House on 787 Leila Avenue. The meeting starts at 1:30, but the room is available to us at 12pm. If you’d like to order something to eat, just remember to come early so that your order is in by 12:45 at the latest to avoid disturbing the meeting.
We hope to see you there!
And if you got a new doll from a special someone, or a galentine, or maybe even one you got yourself for Valentine’s Day…bring them in, we would love to see them!
