Treasurer Helene Hill wrote about the event, “Visitors to Holy Ghost Grotto were very excited to find the bake and rummage sale items. Tourist traffic helped ensure our success! Hundreds of visitors stopped at our event as they went through the Grotto.” The event raised an impressive $4,055.08, with an additional $1,500 in matching funds from 1891 Financial Life.
