Quilts for a cause

Cadette Girl Scout Troop 479 of Spencerport sent 30 fleece quilts to the evacuees of Hurricane Katrina. The girls had spent the summer sewing the quilts as part of their Silver Award Service Project, and had intended to donate them to local organizations. They voted to send the quilts to Houston and gave up a majority of their Labor Day weekend to finish sewing them. The quilts were shipped out with postage being paid for by the Zeller Corporation. The leader of Troop 479 is Kim Meleo. Pictured (l-r) are: Jackie Cianca, Janelle Goeke, Katie Meleo, Callie Goeke, Laura Schrader and Robin Quataert.
