2024 Colfax County: Quilt of Valor

Quilt of Valor

On Sunday, January 28th, 2024, the Colfax County 4-H Council held their annual Volunteer Banquet at the St. Benedict Center near Schuyler. During the banquet a very special presentation was made. A Quilt of Valor, sewn by Colfax County 4-H members was presented to a Colfax County Veteran. A Quilt of Valor is a quilt sewn of Americana fabric and donated to service members to welcome them home. As part of the Quilt of Valor Foundation, a not for profit foundation of volunteer quilters, the quilt presented was created by Colfax County 4-H members as a service project.
