The rapid-fire click, click, click of sewing machines ricocheted off the wooden floor and filled the room Wednesday, Oct. 5, at the Adult Community Center.
The Palm Coast Sewing Guild and the Adult Education sewing class teamed up with the Palm Coast Woman’s Club to make 123 Christmas stockings to be stuffed and sent to soldiers, for Operation Shoebox.
“These women dropped everything,” Kim Young, club member, said of the sewers. “They have the biggest hearts.”
Jan Burweger, club president said, “I was just amazed at what they were doing to help out the Palm Coast Woman’s Club, Operation Shoebox project.”
Operation Shoebox has been a Palm Coast Woman’s Club project for the past five years.
The national project was founded in 2003 to send support to men and women deployed outside the United States, to help raise their morale and let them know they are cared about.
The club will stuff the stockings at its Oct. 27 meeting.
