The Moultonborough Women’s Club has named Janet Schurko the recipient of the 2021 Woman of the Year Award. Her sweet spirit and compassion has led her to devote her time and efforts to serving others in various capacities for the community. She has been a valuable asset as chair of the Remembrance Committee and has spread her kindness to club members, nursing home residents, Meals on Wheels homebound recipients and at the local veteran’s home with notes, home made cards and messages of comfort and encouragement. &nbsp; Christmas time has seen Janet managing the club’s holiday gift projects for area children and she has led a team in making ornaments for the club’s beautifully decorated contribution to Altrusa’s Festival of Trees events. Janet organizes a talented group of knitters and crocheters for the Meredith Savings Bank’s Mitten Tree project, herself knitting many hats, scarves and mittens. Thank you Janet, for your devotion to others and service to the Moultonborough Women’s Club. &nbsp; Janet Schuko with Amy Corston, Director<figure id="figure-aug1nuxrpmglthdpj71"><img id="aug1nuxrpmglthdpj71" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1aq5Ed22htexqra5ogCgGSRko6xvK0zyd5cpH5rx4NsqyMlI3PZr2ZPmGmmlrNF8.jpg" alt="fitness group" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 3/2; object-position: 50% 35%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="3:2" data-caption="" data-positionX="50%" data-positionY="35%" data-fullWidth="false"/></figure>

Mitten Tree

The halls were truly decked in holiday greenery as the members of the Moultonborough Women’s Club brought their voices together in harmony to sing Deck the Halls and other merry carols as Deb Kumpf led a singalong at the December meeting. The members donned festive sweaters in the spirit of the season and an assortment of holiday treats provided by this month’s hostess committee was enjoyed after a delicious luncheon. The Waypoint program and the Moultonborough Children’s Christmas Fund were the designated gift organizations for the month. A team of knitters and crocheters led by Janet Schurko displayed hats, gloves, mittens and scarves to be donated to the Meredith Village Savings Bank’s Mitten Tree.<figure id="figure-81pk8jqqt6lthdsawn"><img id="81pk8jqqt6lthdsawn" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/350CRtNOCJKAGt2UjB8yqkDKE2MFqQwAfZGOhGDKUKdetOmBT4KibQe87K2P55Jm.jpg" alt="8.03.2023, Barcelona, Spain.
