The last of three fundraising clinics at Twindmills Antique Market in Colborne raised over $200 for Easter Seals. Organizer Marshall Gummer commented after the final clinic on April 12, "We would like to thank all the people who brought items in to support the chosen charities."
He reminds people to watch for our clinics for local charity groups next spring. http://www.twindmills.com/
For three consecutive months the people at the stained glass studio and antiques and collectibles market have been hosting antique road show style appraisal clinics and donating the proceeds to charity.
This month Easter Seals got the nod, as accredited appraisers evaluated vintage and childhood toys, antiques and collectibles. The $5 charge for evaluations at the two-day appraisal clinic was donated to Easter Seals.
Twindmills is at the corner of Purdy Rd. and Big Apple Drive just of 401 in Cramahe Township.
