Service Report: 2005 - 2006
The 2005–2006 Charity Work Day took place on February 11, 2006. In spite of the impending blizzard, many people came, and the day was a great success! The pictures below show a few of the many people hard at work throughout the day. The guild is grateful to all the participants and contributors. If you missed Charity Day this year, please plan to come next year. You'll be glad you did — and we will have even more quilts to distribute to the many needy people in our area who are in need of some hand made comfort.
To see the finished quilts, please visit the Charity Quilts page.
