Soldotna Area Senior Citizens, Inc. thanks you

Soldotna Area Senior Citizens, Inc. would like to thank the Peninsula Clarion for including our Fall Art Fair and Bazaar fundraising event numerous times in the Around the Peninsula section of your newspaper. The Bazaar was successful in gathering funds to provide area seniors with nutrition, transportation and assistance for many clients in our community.

We would also like to publicly thank the amateur artists who participated in our Fall Art Fair this year.

First place in Oils was awarded to Margaret Phelps; in Fiber, Jan Wallace; in 3-D, Harvey Douthit; and in Photography, Laurie Johnson. The amateur artist awarded Best of Show AND People’s Choice was Margaret Phelps, for her oil painting titled “First Fishing Season.”

Also, a special thanks to the numerous Art Fair and Bazaar volunteers who received projects and art, helped hang and arrange the displays, hosted the Art Fair, and to the many volunteers in the cafe and bake sale areas. We could not accomplish our mission without the large volume of volunteer hours donated each and every day.

— George Parks, president
