Polio
Plus Quilt
The Calais Rotary Club and
more than one million Rotarians worldwide have contributed to the success
of the polio eradication effort. This year, St. Croix International
Quilters Guild were asked (and eagerly agreed) to help the fight.
For more information about
this effort, visit

Liz Trouant and Joanne Spencer hold
Joanne's Mosaic Masterpiece quilt top. Once completed, the quilt
will be donated to the Calais Rotary Club to be used as a raffle quilt
to raise money for Polio Plus. Matching funds will be available
from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
