Crop for Chemo Care Packages

Join us for this All Day Saturday Crop
to benefit Calli Henderson and Camryn Horne's community service project, "Chemo Care Packages."  These young ladies started this journey as a school project, but have continued on their own to provide care packages to those undergoing cancer treatment at Mercy Hospital in Ada.  The packages contain items such as lotion, fuzzy socks, headphones, snacks, and a journal with inspirational quotes inside. The proceeds from the crop will be used to purchase items for the care packages.  Please join us for a fun-filled day of scrapbooking and crafting.  You may bring your supplies and get started on the Friday night before, but the crop will officially begin Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m.  Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided on Saturday, as well as snacks throughout the day.  We will be giving away door prizes and doing some fun make-n-takes.  Don't miss out, sign up now!
