Pony Express Quilt Fundraiser: Talk About a Bargain

During our Pepsi Refresh grant time Rick Davis, Vice Chairman of the museum Board, managed to have a booth donated to the museum by Jan Reiter, a fellow museum enthusiast, for the Casper Home Show. The Home show is taking place this weekend and we are already selling lots of tickets for our raffle. A $10 donation entitles you to one raffle ticket. The raffle includes a hand made Afghan from Lester Grant, a framed 1912 map of Wyoming from Rick Davis and a handmade Pony Express quilt by Barb Davis. With 200 hours of her spare time Barb created history in fabric. You must see this quilt in person. Its wonderful. Barb was lucky enough to be present from some of the many oohs and aaahs her work created from the Home Show crowds. The Home Show goes on for a couple more days and we are hoping to sell a few hundred tickets. Please come out and support your local museum.
