Spooner Advocate- Springbrook Column, June 25, 2015

Good morning! It is raining as I write this. Some days I think think it will never end! Does everyone have their garden in? Did everyone have a good Father's Day out there? I hope everyone had a beautiful day and spent it with loved ones. 
 
July 4 & 5, 2015 Quilted Memories Quilt Show at Chetek Community Center, 711 First Street, from 10-4pm. Quilts, Vendors, a parade noon on Saturday. $2 admission.

There are a couple new businesses in the area worth mentioning. Wembendangig (Those who are hopeful) Community Sewing Center has opened! Mary is stocking her shop with fabric, beads, jingles, bells, quilts, handmade items. If you would like to take a quilting class or need help making something Mary is the person to talk too! The shop is located at 14362W County Road K, the shop number is 715-699-1379 and the email wembendangig@yahoo.com If you bring in a pow wow button you can get 10% off your purchase, also tax free with a Tribal ID. Right down the street from this awesome shop is Cloud 9 Coffeehouse- 14392 W County Road K. I have to say I have really enjoyed the panini's that Sandy and Eva have created over there. Its a great place to have an iced coffee, a frappe or one of there other wonderful drinks. Sandy's menu changes as they are always trying something new, right now its BLT panini. The number to cloud 9  is 715-634-0340 o on the web at www.c9ch.com. I hope to see you at one of these great new businesses!
