Outreach Project Day

We gathered together at Carol N's home for our Outreach Project Day - the plan was to finish cutting and tying the fleece blankets so we can donate them to Boy's Republic, and to fill our shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child.  There were only a few blankets left to finish, and so we started the day by getting those cut and tied . . .

Debbie and Carol N worked on one blanket . . .
While Linda, Barbara, Sharon and Tina worked on another.
Linda's granddaughter, Mikayla, helped too
Leslie and Chris tied a blanket while Carol L supervised
 When the blankets were finished, we moved to the dining room and spread out all our treasures for the shoe boxes.  We had so much cool stuff . . . pencils, pens, games, notebooks, sewing kits, tools, socks, toothbrushes & toothpaste, soap and wash clothes, combs and brushes, candy (of course) and lots of other things too.  Will it all fit in the box?  Here we are as we stack up the goodies and fill the boxes . . .






With the boxes filled, it's time for lunch . . . . Look at all the happy smiles!

Good job ladies!  For sure we'll do this again next year!
