many people come to this event to
hear him, as he works the crowd
for the top bid. He's also a great
friend of the Lodge, who has
donated his talents each year since
the auction started."

institutes, church groups and in-
dividual quilters from southern
Ontario, with the top price of $790'

person, stated, "The array of quilts
and quality of needlework continues
to be very good and I'm so thankful
for the many, many hours of caring
that goes into this event each year.
In addition, numerous quilts are
donated for use at the Lodge, which
add a nice touch to individual
rooms. These contributions are
greatly appreciated by everyone.
