As you can see if you click on the image below, the Algonquin Township Republican Central Committee is asking help in making blankets for chemotherapy patients at local hospitals.

Clarenda Johnson (847-203-2382) and Eileen Marhoefer (815-455-4717) are heading up the project.

Directions are available for making a “no sew” fleece blanket or people can use their own skills and imagination.

You seen below one that I was given. It’s long enough for me to nap under on the couch.

I’ve put a smaller one on top. That size if more appropriate for someone sitting in a chair.

Keely Cat helps show the scale.

More information may also be obtained from McHenry County Republican Headquarters in the tip of the “V” of the Crystal Lake Plaza. The phone number is 815-444-1910.

Commitments are sought by July 1st with the hope that blankets will be handed in by September 15th.
