We shook and we stirred and shook again; then Ray Barber, our oldest living Active Member, drew a name.... Ann Klatt of Bozrah was the winner!! Congratulations, Ann. I will meet up with Ann at the Firehouse tomorrow morning and deliver her prize. Thanks to all who participated in any way, large or small. A special thanks to the 20 women who joined with me in creating this work of art. We are still counting $$$ and I will have a final accounting soon, but, rest assured, we did well!!!

Hi! 2025 marks the 75th Anniversary of the Bozrah Volunteer Fire Company. A group of 22+- quilters have volunteered to join with me create an heirloom quality quilt to showcase the best of Bozrah and its citizenry in celebration of our town and its volunteers. The Queen Size quilt will be raffled off as a fundraiser for the BVFC in celebration of 75 years of volunteering Fire and EMS services to our beautiful town of Bozrah.

More will follow over the next several months as we use this page to celebrate the quilters, the history, the artistry and the design of the Project.

The quilters are volunteering their time and materials to create the Blocks (35-40 needed), however, once the blocks are complete, there is significant time and expense involved in construction of the quilt and marketing the completed project. Any financial assistance you or your friends and associates would be willing to make would be greatly appreciated. Any funds raised beyond the cost of construction and marketing will go to the Building/Capital Fund of BVFC, a 501C3 entity. Make checks payable to BVFC and note in the memo section that the funds are to the 75th Quilt Project.

We hope that you will share this page with friends, particularly those with an association to Bozrah and check in from time to time to see what we are up to.

I hope that you will enjoy some of the photos that I am sharing. Please feel free to share your own.

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year! Annie
