Women’s Day Apart - October 12, 2024
River Bend Nature Center
Thank You to all of you that gave to Emma Norton Services through donations and/or quilt raffle tickets.
Congratulations to Jody Mousel, the winner of the “Happy Hearts” quilt. The quilt was pieced by our Dorothy Orde, and quilted by Marcia Speiker of Fourth Avenue UMC. Twenty-seven of you bought tickets. It only takes one ticket to win. Of course Jody did not leave anything to chance. Enjoy the warmth and beauty of the quilt, Jody.
Thank you to all others that gave donations. We raised $1,000 for Emma Norton Services. Many of you gave individual donations that equaled $750. A separate donor felt nudged to add $250, making that $1,000.
Thank you to all that made our mission for Emma Norton successful. Therefore, no pie baking this year.
