Residents looking for a regular craft gathering can check Creative Threads Crochet Club at the Wilfred Smith Resource Center in Winter Haven. Polk County’s event listing says the club meets every first and third Wednesday from October through December, from 6 to 7:30 p.m.

Call before attending

The center is at 135 Ave. Y NE in Winter Haven. The county requires an RSVP by calling (863) 298-7898 and limits space to 35 participants. Call to confirm the next meeting and available places before making the trip.

The first- and third-Wednesday pattern puts the next dates after November 6 on November 18, December 2 and December 16. These dates are calculated from the county’s recurring schedule; the center should confirm any holiday changes.

Bring your supplies

Starter threads were offered at the October 7 opening meeting. The county says participants must bring their own supplies to subsequent meetings. Its listing does not specify a fee, age requirement or whether beginners receive instruction, so ask the center about those details when reserving a place.

This guide was checked against the county event listing on November 6. The listing’s main date still displays October 7, while its description supplies the October–December recurring schedule. It should not be read as confirmation that every future meeting will proceed unchanged.
