Organizations

SGCMH QUILTING

The Ste. Genevieve County Memorial Hospital Partners will have quilting from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day on the following dates: Monday, June 3; Tuesday, June 4; and Wednesday, June 5. All quilters are invited to help quilt baby quilts to be sold in the hospital gift shop. Quilting takes place in the education room on the lower level of the hospital and lunch will be served all three days. More quilters are needed, as the baby quilts are being sold rapidly and the organization needs to build up its inventory.
