Raffle of quilt to benefit Lansing EMS ...

The staff members of Thornton Manor and Thornton Heights Assisted Living in Lansing are hosting a quilt raffle to benefit the Lansing Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Ambulance Fund. The EMS-themed quilt  (pictured above) was pieced and stitched by Eileen Smith and Arlis Myhre, and it will be on display at this weekend’s Lansing Fish Days in the Lansing Fire Station. All raffle donations will go toward the purchase of the new Lansing EMS ambulance, with the raffle drawing scheduled to be held December 17 of this year. Multiple opportunities to view the quilt and purchase tickets will be made over the next five months. For more information on raffle tickets, call Thornton Manor at 563-538-4236.
