It was a beautiful ceremony here On The Green in Chester Vermont honoring our Vermont Veterans.
The celebration was held on August 11th
The mission of the Quilts of Valor Foundation is to cover service members and veterans touched by war with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor.
Country Treasures and the Quilts of Valor Foundation, with the help of Vermont Coordinator, Lynn Carrier, would like to make this an annual event. Check out our upcoming Newsletter and Class Schedule on times to help with QOV here in our classroom. We always welcome help from home as well.
This year Sue Ashe, owner of Country Treasures was presented with a Certificate of Appreciation.
We would also like to say "Thank You" to all our volunteers that helped with this years event.
