The annual Yuletide event is our major fundraiser of the year and we couldn’t do it without your help.

Many kudos are due to Sally Shattuck, Denise Smith, Maureen Austin, Carol Mierzewski and the whole committee for bringing off this event so beautifully. Our many elegant baskets, wreaths, and crafts were the talk of the town and all who attended the many bazaars that weekend. The Yuletide Event culminated with the drawing of our Fifth Annual Cash Raffle. We owe so many thanks to all those who supported our raffle so cheerfully, and to all who gave of their time selling tickets. I am pleased to announce that this was a very successful raffle for us. Our prizewinners were Ed Mierzewski (1st prize), Jacob Neggers (2nd prize) and Ronald Wheeler (3rd prize). The coveted quilt made by Florine Neggers was won by D. Pelchat Jr., of Ludlow.

The Yuletide Event was also the first time our Cat’s Meow figurines of the Association’s historic Concord Coach went on sale. These figurines were made in honor of the town’s 250th anniversary, and many thanks are due to Maureen Austin for spearheading that project. They really came out great!
