As the season closes, we would like to say we have enjoyed this year very much. We have had lots of laughs and welcomed many new friends to the
group. We had the pleasure of hosting the March Ladies ’ Luncheon and it turned out to be a wonderful event gathering 212 of our friends and neighbors. The “ Hearts of Gold ” luncheon allowed
us to show off some of our handmade treasures and give a glimpse into the work we do for Shelter From The Storm (SFTS), Cathedral City Fire Department and Cathedral City Police Department.
Our speaker, Ryann McMillan, former SFTS resident touched our hearts as he described his families hardships. He lived in the shelter during his teenage years
and was able to overcome tremendous obstacles to become a successful pillar of our community. It is Angelina Coe, Ryann & Mrs. McMillan
through the generosity of the ORPS community by participating in our raffles, sales and donations, we are able to sponsor these selfless groups. Your kindness generated $2,305 in cash the day of the event, and greatly needed items for the shelter. Through the money we have raised this
season, we were elated to award $4,000 to Angelina Coe, Executive Director, at Shelter from the Storm. We are so grateful to be a part of such a giving community. Thank you. We also held the drawing for the three raffle quilts. The lucky winners are: • Heart Quilt – David Quick • Basket Quilt – Judy Thomas • Blue and Yellow Quilt – Maryellen Muir Congratulations! We wish you all safe travels this summer and good health. We look forward to making many happy memories with you next season.
