Devastating Loss For The Crochet Club Of London  - Posted June 2011

      The Crochet Club has suffered a great loss as a result of the sinkhole that developed on Saturday, June 11, 2011 at the intersection of Richmond and Oxford Streets in downtown London.  For the past several years, the basement of the Scotiabank at this corner has kindly donated space for us to store our yarn, and their basement was flooded because of the sinkhole.  As a result, our Club has lost over $8,700 worth of yarn and storage bins.  This is a devastating loss for the Crochet Club and its 90 members. 

Movers were hired to relocate the salvageable yarn to a temporary storage facility for which we must pay.  A special account in the name of “The Crochet Club of London” has been set up, and donations may be made at any Scotiabank branch in the city of London to help us get back on our feet.  We would be very grateful for any financial support from the community.
