Girl Scout Troop 40391 out of Terrace Elementary School is participating in The Blanket Brigade again this year and is asking for any and all help in collecting new fleece blankets for Lutheran General’s Children Hospital. They will be collecting blankets until the end of November, so there's plenty of time to get some fabric and make some blankets. JoAnn’s fabric has fleece on sale plus an extra 20% off of total purchase coupon. If you check out blanketbrigade.blogspot.com you will find all the details on this wonderful project and all the instructions on how to make these blankets. If you have any other questions please email Lesley DeRusha at
[email protected]. They are hoping to have a blanket-making party coming up soon, so keep an eye out for more information.
In addition, they are also participating in the Lollipop Lane service project. Essentially, they girls are collecting everybody’s “leftover” Halloween candy. There is a bin in the main office for the candy. They will be collecting through next Friday, November 13. Lollipop Lane benefits sick children, and any candy not used by that will be sent to our military personnel overseas. So, if you are looking to get rid of all that candy, feel free to donate to the girls.
