Message from Worthy Matron Diana

I want to thank everyone who attended the initiation of our newest member. Also many thanks to those who are assisting us with our 2015 projects.  As a reminder, they are Infant Apparel, those that have the talent to knit or crochet, we're in need of preemie hats, sweaters, baby blankets or other infant apparel.  These items are being donated to our local hospitals. Coupons for the Military, collect, trim and separate by food and non-food manufactures coupons (up to 6 months past their expiration dates). The military commissaries overseas accept these coupons which helps the military families. Blankets for the VA Hospital, the VA Hospitals can use lap or twin size blankets made of fleece, quilted, knitted or crocheted. We are donating to our local VA Hospital.

Sickness and Distress: We have lost a long time member Betty Jo McGlone passed away in December. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family.  Please keep warm and healthy and we will see you in Chapter.
