Scholarship Fund raffling off a quilt they made; sponsored a foster child in
South America; sold their own crafts at their annual Quilt Show; promoted EH
through store window displays; presented a copy of the national oral history
book Voices of American Homemakers to
the country library in memory of past county and state president Mrs. H.C.
Little; held many workshops and training sessions; and shared their knowledge
and talents with thousands of non-members.
Polly Reese was recognized as the county A&P nominee.
Pinkie Mosteller and Velma Robertson were named county VEEP winners. Lowesville
EHA won the Outstanding Project Award for adoption of a family with four
children at Christmas.
