We have a wonderful quilt to raffle this summer! The White Pines Quilt Guild from Harrisville, MI, has donated this quilt to the Alzheimer's Association to help us raise money for our Memory Walk. The gals meet once at month at Hollyhocks Quilt Shop in Harrisville. Hats off to the gals in the guild!

The quilt is simply lovely. It is queen bed size with 12 different snowman squares and beautiful machine quilting through all the layers. What a perfect quilt for Northeast Michigan! In the photo is Jan Mooradian (wife of author Tom Mooradian) from the White Pines Quilt Guild. Jan has spearheaded this whole project.

Tickets are available at the Alpena Office, 526 W Chisholm St, or from the White Pines Quilt Guild members. Tickets are $1 each or 6 for $5. Drawing will be held at the Alpena Memory Walk on September 19th, at the Band Shell in Bay View Park around 11:00am. You need not be present to win!

For more information, you can contact: Pegg Thomas in the Alpena Office.
