JASNA Syracuse extends a warm welcome to New York State's newest JASNA region, the New York Capitol Region (which includes Albany, Saratoga Springs, and everything else in the 120XX-123XX and 128XX zipcodes). The Capitol Region is getting off to a fast start with its first major event on June 30-July 1: a two-day Jane
Austen Retreat at Wiawaka on Lake George. Regional Coordinator Patricia A. Friesen says that attendees will make strawberry jam, embellish bonnets,
watch a movie version of Emma, and discuss it the first day; on the second morning, there will be a
picnic where everyone will wear their bonnets and eat the strawberry jam
with scones. If this sounds like an irresistible weekend, contact Pat at mcfriesen2[at]gmail.com (substitute the @ symbol for the [at], of course), or go to the Wiawaka website for more details.
