The beginning...
...and the end!!
Our 2014 season of the Proverbial Pumpkin Patch is officially over! We would like to thank all those who came and made our season a successful one! The above two pictures are before and after pictures of our 2014 patch! It is neat to see how many pumpkins were taken this year. Our official tally of how many pumpkins we sold this year was very close to 950! We were so excited that this year was successful and that people enjoyed themselves as they participated in all of our activities.
October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month, and so this year, the vote was unanimous from all our family members to take half of all the proceeds we received from anyone who bought any crocheted items at our Country Gift and Bake Shop and donate it at the end of the season to the Down Syndrome Society of Indiana. We also placed a donation jar on the checkout table in our Country Gift and Bake Shop. We were so excited to sell many crocheted items, and also receive a good amount in donations. For those who would like to know how much we raised for the Down Syndrome Society, here are the final totals!
We received $53.07 in donations.
We made $268.00 in crocheted items sold.
We will donate half of the proceeds, which is $134.00,
and so for the grand total of donations and sold items...........$187.07!!!!!
Thank you SO much to all who contributed to our donation jar and/or bought crocheted items.
