2026 Annual Meeting Lodging

By All IWS Info
Hello IWS Membership:
For those of you interested in spending the night in Twin Falls for our Annual Meeting (September 18-19), I have done a little research and have found the following:
Three hotels, Quality Inn and Suites, SureStay by Best Western, and My Place Hotel Twin Falls, all have rates in the $130-$150 range. Most of the others I looked at such as Marriott and Hilton were in the $200 per night range. I hope this helps you with your decision-making.
Thanks very much,
Scott Muscolo, President

Expose Homeschoolers to Watercolor Painting

By All IWS Info, Region - Southwest

Hello,

I facilitate the homeschoolers group at the Kuna library. Once a month we invite different organizations/businesses to teach our group about their field of work and if possible, do a hands-on activity together. We would like to invite the Idaho Watercolor Society to be our guest this coming fall. We usually have about 50 people. Parents attend and assist their children, primarily ages 5-12.

Contact Heather if you are interested.
