The Laura Foundation's "Halloween Town"

Altrusa of Carroll County helps The Laura Foundation for Autism and Epilepsy with the very popular annual Halloween Town at King Pine Ski Area.  We like to support this very worthwhile non-profit by helping as they raise funds to provide support and therapy for local children.  Oooh the fun we had.....  as greeters, set-up, hot chocolate sellers, raffle managers and more.  The weather was clear and the happy smiles were contagious.  And we had some very clever costumes!

Altrusa members "Making Strides"!

On Sunday, October 14th, members of Altrusa of Carroll County joined the effort and 3 mile walk to raiser funds to find a cure for breast cancer.  We did well and had fun, as our team raised $1,730 and placed #6 out of 23 teams who entered the North Conway Walk.  With more than 300 residents joining the Walk, approximately $68,000 was raised for the American Cancer Society research.
