Calling All Crafts!

This is a positive, fun, drama-free, and supportive group where people get together and do crafts and share. Any craft will be welcome, as long as you have the proper mats and equipment, and don't work with things like glitter.
****If you want to stay in the group, please update RSVPs and do not no-show or cancel last minute. Thank you****

Please adhere to these guidelines if you want to be in this group. The rules are simply about basic respect. *Please do not advertise products, other groups, or other group's events in here.
*Please keep your RSVPs current, out of respect for the other members, the organizer, and the establishment.
*This is a peaceful group. If people are disrespectful to anyone, they will not remain in the group.
If anyone is being rude or disrespectful to you, please let the organizer know.
*Do not post negative comments anywhere in the group forum or event forums.
*If a message should be private or you are having an issue that needs to be resolved, please send me a personal message rather than posting it in a public forum.
*If you're having an issue with another group member, do not have an argument in any group forum.
*So as not to offend anyone, please respect that this is not a religious or a strong right politically leaning group.
* Sadly, I have to add this because of someone's behavior and their inapproprite response in not getting their way. As with the majority of the groups on Meetup, this isn't a group for small children. We have adult conversations and members feel free to engage in such conversations. Members count on the dynamic and flow that has been created in this group. While children are wonderful, they change the dynamics of a group. Additionally, children are not allowed to run around the main events venue and disturb other groups. Adults aren't allowed to disturb other groups. I wouldn't be able to book the venue if I had members that disturbed others. The other venues are geared towards adults and adult conversations as well.

RSVP POLICY: It is basic respect and courtesy. Please change your RSVP as soon as possible, with at least 24-hour notice if possible. Don't no-show, which is something really wrong to do to any group, and can affect your ability to sign up for future events. This is both a group policy and a general Meetup policy. Emergencies arise, but please communicate when you can. If you're sick in the morning of an event, please send a private message to the organizer as early as possible.
Some things are case by case. For example, people who keep signing up for events and then change their RSVP close to the event, never actually coming to an event, may get a private message to stop doing that. If that continues, that person may not be able to sign up for future events. This is unfair to all the other members and the organizer, especially those members on the waitlist. I have seen that happen in other groups.
If something else happens frequently that requires changing a rule, the rules will be updated as needed. Hard line and punitive rules are not the purpose of this group. But, I can't run a group if everyone isn't working together to help this be a well functioning and happy group. So, rules may evolve out of necessity to keep things as such. Thank you!
