OSWEGO, NY – Samantha McKie of Fulton put her talents to good use as she crafted a quilt for the Oswego Community Christian School.
The handmade quilt will be one of the many items that will be available at the school’s third annual auction to be held May 15 from 1 to 5 p.m. at the Oswego Armory, West First Street.
The action, which serves as a fundraiser for the school, will feature a silent auction from 1 to 3 p.m. and a live auction from 3 to 5 p.m.
Committee members, who have been busy soliciting and gathering items for the auctions, were pleased to accept the donation from McKie.

The quilt will be available through special drawing.
Tickets for the drawing for the quilt will be available for $5 per ticket or three for $10 and can be purchased at the event.
The auction will also include the Oswego Community Christian School’s annual prize drawing.
