Farmgirls Step Up

For the last month our chapter has been working on making chemo caps for the Cancer Treatment Center in Klamath Falls. Some were crocheted while others were sewn. Everyone really stepped up to the challenge to get as many done as possible for the month.

Today they were taken to the Center and were welcomed with warm smiles. We were told this is one item that they go through a lot. As we walked away feeling good about what we all did, it struck us that such a selfish, simple jester was of great meaning and thankfulness to so many.

It truely feels good to be able to give, even if you don't have a lot of money, just some of your time. Thank you ladies for a job well done.

Making Christmas Kabobs for the Bazarr

Today the chicks met to make candy kabobs to sell at a local bazarr December 5 & 6th.
The proceeds from the sale will go to benefit one of our "sisters ' daughter who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Lots of fun and over 75 kabobs were completed.

We met for lunch at Marygail's. What a hen party we had. We have also adopted a needy local family and will provide a complete Christmas including a turkey dinner, tree with all the trimmings, stockings and gifts. More pictures will be posted when we gather again to deliver the gifts.

Eight is Not Enough

Yes, that's us...(left to right : seated Julie, Cheryl, Robin, April, JoAnn, Marygail, Faith and the birthday girl... Gail seated.) See how we have grown.... We are now at 8 and Our membership is still open.

We enjoyed a Surprise Birthday Lunch for Gail at our Meeting Nov 20th in my home. Our Chapter has adopted a family of 5 for Christmas. We will be providing a tree with all the trimmings, stockings and food and gifts for the family.

Another project we are working on is crocheting and sewing chemo caps for local Cancer patients, and will be donating bazarr items to sell with proceeds going to one of our members for her daughters medical expences. She has no insurance and has been diagnosed with breast cancer and under going chemo treatments right now. It will be a busy time for the Charming Chicks from now until Christmas. We are happy to be able to give back to our community. We are planning a fun Girls day after the holidays to celebrate our chapter efforts and will be adding possibly 3 more members.. Our next meeting will be Nov 29th in Marygail's home.
