Crop for Cancer
Peggy Tyrrell participated in the Crop for Cancer (scrap booking fundraiser) that took place at Knox Presbyterian Church recently. Jen Snow was crowned `Queen of the Crop' for having personally collected more than $1,100 in pledges. Linda Plastino was second with $550 and Wanda Doyle came in third with $500. Scrapbookers worked on their albums, played games, enjoyed free make and takes, and posted photos and layouts on the "Wall of Celebration" to honour loved ones touched by cancer. Many people stopped by the church to bid on 60 different silent auction items, both scrapbooking and non-scrapbook related. A special raffle was held in memory of last year's top Crop for Cancer participant, who succumbed to cancer in October. Thanks to all the participants, and the generosity of many local businesses, more than $11,000 was raised for Cancer Assistance Services of Halton Hills. Photo by Sabrina Byrnes
