FUNDRAISING CROCHET
CLASS
|
On February
24th our local chapter hosted a fundraising crochet class. The class
was taught by the very talented and patient Area Coordinator, Betty
Jones. I must admit, it was so much fun! Nine people took on
the challenge of learning how to crochet and they all did absolutely wonderful!
Our youngest
guest was 6 year old Lindsay Trapp of Malvern who attended the class with
her grandmother, Mrs. Krauss. This very bright young girl quickly
learned how to double crochet a binky for her Barbie Dolls. When
we asked Lindsay if she had fun, she exclaimed, "Yes I did! At first
I thought I couldn't do it! Now I can!".
One of our very dedicated
volunteers, 12 year old Daniel Davis of Warren also attended the class.
She had a wonderful time learning how to double crochet and made a promise
to make the worlds longest chain! Happy Crocheting Daniel!!
The ladies who attended
the crochet class are very excited about volunteering for Binky Patrol.
I would like to extend a very warm welcome to the newest members of our
Minerva Chapter. Thank you for your support! Special thanks to Jenny
McNutt for your help and your continued dedication to the children of Binky
Patrol..
