Back in March, Scott and Barbara Edwards of Seeley Lake, Montana, launched their second quilt raffle for the sanctuary. Barbara is a quilt maker whose first quilt raffle for the ranch raised $1,000 for the animals. That first raffle was held only locally, but this year we announced it on the blog so others could participate as well.
Scott and Barbara came by the ranch Sunday with the quilt and the raffle tickets so we could hold the drawing. We took this photo in our welcome center of Scott and Barbara holding the quilt, just before Alayne pulled the winner from the basket full of tickets. And the winner was … Cindy F. of Ovando! (Sorry, blog readers!)
And with that, Barbara handed us a check for $1,000! Thank you to Barbara for her incredible generosity — and stunning quilt — and to everyone who purchased a raffle ticket. In the end, the animals are the real winners!
Speaking of animals, that’s new arrival blind-and-deaf Baron on the chair … he came out to visit and say hello.
