2003 Christmas In July

 

Sandy Run Ruritan Club members gathered at the Sandy Run - Calhoun County Station #31 Fire Station on Friday, July 18, 2003 to prepare twenty-seven Christmas in July baskets for the sick and shut-ins in the Sandy Run Community.  Members participating in this project were Dave Boney, Kathy Boney, Gary Geiger, Herbert Geiger, Gary Hardee, Roger Hill, Glenn James, Kay James, James Robinson, George Rogers, Marshall Stabler, Lena Stabler, Lillian Stabler (adopted member), and Doug Watts.  Each Christmas In July basket contained four types of canned goods, candy, apples, oranges, grapes, bananas, a dishtowel, a dishcloth, and information about Ruritan.  Ruritan members delivered the baskets on Friday evening and Saturday.  This was truly a time when the Ruritan motto of “Fellowship, Goodwill, and Community Service” was quite evident.  Those giving the baskets and those receiving the baskets were truly blessed.  The Christmas in July baskets is an annual project sponsored by the Sandy Run Ruritan Club.

Here are some pictures of the event.
