Many businesses and organizations generously supported the Week and the events were well attended. Following are some of the highlights. The Crafts for Kids evening was attended by over 40 children. This was an over -whelming response. especially when we remember the same event was attended by less than 15 in 1993.

The children who par- ticipated submitted beautiful artwork, and were pleased with their prizes. Megan Bisback was the "big" winner. She was not only an individual win- ner, but her name was drawn for the grand prize of an international Year of the Family T-shirt.
