Hand-made cards for servicemen around the world.
Recently a few members of the DeBorgia Historic School House gathered to make greeting cards to send in care packages for servicemen around the world. Participants, led by committee chairperson, Lynette Walters assembled precut scraps, glued pieces using ones own creativity, and talked about the arrival of spring in the West End. The group, affectionately sometimes referred to as the Happy Homemakers, its original name, had suggested reviving the tradition of craft-making together. This was the first of more projects to come.
One more card making day is scheduled for Thursday, May 24th 1-4:00. All are invited. Cards will also be available to sign for servicemen at the annual DeBorgia School House Yard Sale June 15 and 16.
