 The May program is “What Makes a Winner” presented by Barbara Broushous.

 We had 32 LUV quilts donated last month. 25 were baby quilts and 7 others. I want to thank everyone who worked so hard to make sure we could donate to the CSU-Pueblo organization. There were 6 left over from March so we made the 30 that was needed.
