Craft Fair & Picnic Hosted by the Senior Centers of Susquehanna County
Barely a cloud in the sky, a soft breeze blowing, birds chirping, butterflies fluttering, and water gently gurgling nearby. July 20th, 2018 was a beautiful day for an outdoor event; a Senior Craft Fair & Picnic event at Salt Springs State Park, to be exact. Over 100 Susquehanna County residents 60 and older came to the first annual event put together by the six Susquehanna County Senior Centers, located in Montrose, Lawton, Great Bend, Susquehanna, Lenoxville, and Forest City.
The Susquehanna County Senior Centers would like to thank the local businesses, organizations, and individuals that helped make this event the wonderful success that it was: Chris Lathrop (painting), Kim Harris (Mary Kay basket), Action Cleaning of CNY, Metz Culinary, Pump N Pantry, Lawton Diner, Alison Dirmeitis (painting), Hayloft, Peoples Bank, Rush To Us Consignment, Lynne Jenks (afghan), Dottie Lou’s Packing, From The Heart, Master Gardener’s, Flynn’s Stone Castle, Marconi Company, Susquehanna Wyoming County Transportation, Tracey Marconi (quilt), Lily Pad Florist, Ray’s Shur Fine, Angelina Maisonave (painting), Kidz Consignment, and the center participants who contributed to the centers’ baskets.
Proceeds went back to the six senior centers to assist in their efforts to provide opportunities for socialization, education and nutritious meals within the community. Thank you to everyone, and stay tuned for information regarding next year’s Craft Fair & Picnic!
