And the Hats just keep on comin'!!!!

I am so utterly impressed!  Another 105 hats were turned in last night at the guild meeting.  You guys are all amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would like to send out a special congratulations to our two raffle winners Jennifer Graham and Evelyn Rector.  CONGRATULATIONS!  We hope you enjoy your prizes!

We are SOOO close to our goal!  We only have 162 hats to go to meet out goal.  I will be accepting hats from out drop off locations through the 19th.  We also have a contributors from a group in Laurel who are donating.  There are even some of our members who want to continue making some hats to turn in in October.  At our October meeting I will be bringing all the hats in to photograph with the group.  I thank each and everyone one of you for helping to make this event so successful!!!!

Hats!!!

I can't wait for Tuesday meeting to see all of the wonderful hats you guys have made!  I made another run around to some of the pick up locations and we have another 38 hats!  I also had the opportunity to finish putting together the baskets for our raffle!  We had so much stuff I decided to make 2 baskets!  Below is a picture of them ready to be given away!  I hope everyone has a chance to join us for our 2 year anniversary meeting.  See you all there!

Hooray for More Hats!!

I have received word from Sandy that she picked up another 19 hats at Two Rivers Yarns!  We are just 5 short of hitting 200!!  Keep them coming everyone!

Another UPDATE

I had the opportunity to go around and check some of the other drop off locations this weekend.  We received 20 hats from Two Rivers Yarns, 9 more were dropped off at Colonial Jewelers, and another 3 were dropped off at Uno's!  That's a total of another 32 hats!!  We are up to 176!  Is that exciting or what???  I am going to check our locations again on the 22nd just before our next meeting unless I get a call to come get some more :)  Happy Crocheting!!

Hat Drive Update!!

Hello Everyone!
I hope your September has had an amazing start!  I am so excited to let you all know that the Frederick Senior Center called me today to say they filled our box!!  I went by to pickup the hats and they have donated 32 hats!!  That brings us to 144 hats in less than a month and a half!!!  Thank you to the ladies at the Senior Center for your generosity and for all the wonderful hats.  Rumor has it they are working on more so I will let you guys know what I hear.  I will also be going by our other 3 drop off locations this weekend so look forward to another update soon!!

August Meeting

All I can say is "WOW!!"  I am so excited to see how successful our Hat Drive is so far.  The members of SMC turned in 112 hats!!!  That is amazing!

I cannot wait to see what happens in Sept!  I will post again once I have received some of the hats from our drop offs.  I know we have hats at Two Rivers Yarns and I look forward to getting even more hats a the other three locations (Colonial Jewelers, Uno's, and The Frederick Senior Center). Thank you again to each and every member who is helping to make the Hat Drive a success!!!
