"Rhinestone Cowgirl Roundup"
The evening was a fabulous success! Libby was wonderful, the Fall Festival
Committee did a wonderful job, food by Memorable Events was beautifully
presented and delicious as always, the door prizes by Lynn McCreight and
her committee were special. All in all it was another evening to remember!
And we can't wait until next year!
A highlight of the evening was the drawing for the 2006 raffle quilt.
It was won by Janet Mount of Pullman, WA. Janet is a quilter and was
delighted to be the new owner of the beautiful quilt, "Pullman Square
Dance."!
The new 2007 raffle quilt debuted this evening. The raffle drawing will be
in
October 2007. Be sure to buy a ticket!!!
Guests were greeted by Karla Falter at the Libby just after
her information-packed
