Stephenie Bjorkman is our speaker for the April meeting.
Stephenie is a lot like the jewelry she sells: colorful, fresh, smart, and always evolving. Like the native gemstones her store is known for, she’s an Arizona original. And as the CEO and president of Sami Fine Jewelry, she is building on the company’s reputation for consistently delighting customers.
Stephenie never expected to sell jewelry, much less run a store ranked among the top in the industry. When Sami Jack, her mother, became ill, Stephenie joined the family business.
They made a formidable team, and Stephenie soon discovered a talent for attracting customers’ attention. Her promotions and in-store events have earned her the title “Queen of Marketing” from Indesign, a magazine covering high-end American designer jewelry retailers. Instore, the industry’s leading trade publication, named Sami Fine Jewelry one of America’s Coolest Stores in 2008.
In 2013, Sami retired, handing the reins to her daughter. As CEO and president, Stephenie maintains the blue-ribbon standards that have distinguished Sami Fine Jewelry for years.
Stephenie will be discussing American gemstone jewelry. She has the first and only American gemstone jewelry gallery in the world.
Her mother Sami Jack, a long time FHWC member and now an honorary member, plans to attend this meeting. Perhaps she will help us learn more about our club as we celebrate our 50th year in 2024.
The Book Club will be held on Wednesday, April 26th. The book is "Where the Crawdads Sing" by Delia Owens.

There will not be a speaker at this meeting since all our members have not yet returned, but we are still planning a fun an interesting meeting. So join us and enjoy a friendly game of Bingo.
Did you know...
A game of chance named lotto was being played in Italy by about 1530. In 18th-century a home version (called Tombola) was created in Naples with the addition of cards, tokens and the calling out of numbers. In the nineteenth century a game like this was widely played in Germany to teach children spelling, animal names and multiplication tables.
The French game Le Lotto appeared in 1778, featuring 27 squares in a layout of three rows and nine columns. Five squares in each row had numbers ranging from 1 through 90, which led to the modern design.
In the early 1920s, Hugh J. Ward created and standardized the game at carnivals in and around Pittsburgh and the Western Pennsylvania area. He copyrighted it and published a rule book in 1933.
The game was further popularized by Edwin Lowe. While at a traveling carnival near Atlanta in December 1929 the toy merchandiser saw people eagerly playing a game called "Beano" following Ward's rules, with dried beans, a rubber stamp, and cardboard sheets. Lowe took the game to New York where friends liked playing it. The Lowe-produced Bingo game had two versions, a 12-card set for $1.00 and a $2.00 set with 24 cards. By the 1940s there were Bingo games throughout the US.
The origin of the name Bingo is unknown but may date to the middle 1920s. There are claims that one of Lowe's friends was so excited to have won that she yelled out "Bingo" instead of "Beano," or that the word echoes the sound of a bell.
