NEWS

On July 8th, Columbiana County's Morning Journal featured a front page article about Binky Patrol. The article is wonderful! It was written by Terri Staley and in my opinion is the best article yet!

If you would like to read it, please click here. I am sorry we were unable to include it in the newsletter, as it is quite long. If you would like a mailed copy, please contact me at 330-868-6477.

SALEM JUBILEE

On July 19 - 22 we participated in the Salem Jubilee. At this event we held an opportunity drawing for two handmade blankets, a get-a-way basket, and a various gift certificates. Tickets are still available for this drawing. They are $1 each or 5 tickets for $3. Please contact Brandy if you are interested in selling or purchasing a ticket.

We also hosted the "Color A Quilt" at the Jubilee. Although we had little success raising money at this three day event (less than $50), we definately had great success getting the community involved in coloring the plain fabric squares. The display of colors is wonderful! I was amazed over how much time and effort the children and adults, (YES ADULTS TOO!) spent decorating the squares!

Here are just a few of the squares that were decorated:

Thank You
Betty Jones and Marge Warrick for your help with this event!

BUDDIES

Thank you for caring!

POEM

Ok, for those of you who know me, you know I can be quite silly. For one of my college classes we had to make a commercial. I choose to make one about Binky Patrol. I wanted to share the poem with you! If you are recieving this over the internet, CLICK HERE to watch it. Please be patient - it will take some time to load. -Its my first attempt, so don't laugh to much! :o) LOL

We make blankets,
and give them away.
To help brighten a child's rainy day.

Binkies are made with lots of love.
They are sewn, crocheted and quilted for fun.

Our binkies come straight from the heart. So please help us by playing your part.
