Crafty Ladies

 

We started in 1992 and over the years our group has grown. Our membership varies and fluctuates because of new members and departure of others.

Our purpose depends on the different talents within the group, which include those who quilt, knit and crochet, and those who stuff gingerbread men for the police department to give to children.

Some of our quilts are raffled off, and others are given to charities. We also sell some items in our craft shop on the premises. We knit hundreds of caps and mittens each year for the HeadStart organisation. Within our group we help and teach each other and expand our talents. It is a happy and dedicated group that contributes what we can for the worthy causes we serve.

We meet each week on Wednesday morning for about 2 and 1/2 hours, from 9:30 AM to noon. Most of the preparation work is done at home and brought in each week. While most of the material comes from donations ( and these are abundant) some ladies prefer to spend their own money on their items.

Most of all, we like to invite you to come see us and look us over. If you like what you see, we invite you to join. Call us at the Senior Center or contact us via the Web Page.

Coffee is usually provided and occassional goodies too.
