DeMaris Holmes helps with the mending.
The second Mending Marathon Day by the Schoolcraft United Methodist Women’s group was so successful members have decided on another one on Saturday, April 14 from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. at the church’s Fellowship Hall on N. Grand Street. Here, DeMaris Holmes studies a stocking that she was going to mend when the second event was held last fall. The marathon is part of the church women’s sharing talents commitment. They don’t charge for the service, but accept donations for the group’s children’s camp scholarships, Judy Oliphant said. She is chairing the Mending Day this spring and encourages anyone in the community to bring in clothes with a rip or tear in need of mending.
