To be announced-Tuscola County Project Linus ~FALL Make a Blanket Day

We are planning another Make a Blanket Day event. This time we are including some new things this time which means we are adding some twists & turns to this next event. Keep your eyes open to a new email coming from us soon.

March 6, 2010 - Tuscola County Project Linus ~ Make a Blanket Day

Tuscola County Project Linus held a "Make a Blanket Day" event on March 6th from 11am - 4pm. It was held at St. Paul Lutheran School in Millington, Michigan. During this event blankets were made by local families. Many blankets were sent to Haiti to help them survive the terrible living conditions they were left in after the earthquake.

We want to personally thank everyone who participated in this event. It was bigger than we ever thought it would have been. We had a fantastic time and hope everyone else enjoyed themselves too!

Our "Color a Quilt Square" booth was a huge success! Thanks to all of you, we collected over 100 quilt squares colored by the visiting children. They will be made into colorful blankets, labeled and donated to hospitals and other recipient locations in Tuscola County. We know they will be truly appreciated.

Thank you to everyone who participated.

We have more ideas of fun activities coming up and will be sure to post them for everyone to participate.
