2010 GHQG Scholarship
The 2010 GHQG Scholarship
was awarded to Jarica Golino at the Steering Committee
meeting in June. Jarica's mother, member Jean Blain of
Ellington Country Quilters, accepted the award on her behalf
and showed a few of Jarica's lovely quiltes. Jarica is
attending nursing school and she received
a $500 scholarship to be used for purchasing textbooks and
supplies.
*Remember, members...the quilt show is the source of our
scholarship's funds. The Scholarship committee is chaired by
Amanda Gabehart.
