NEW MOON PARTY

We are so excited to finally be able to announce our Twilight Saga: New Moon party!!!

On Tuesday, November 24, 2009 we will host two screenings of the highly anticipated second installment in the Twilight series: New Moon. Tickets will be $30 and include your movie ticket, concessions, a souvenir, and a donation to two very worthy causes: Colton's Angels and the Borto Deseret Orphanage.

The Borto Deseret Orphanage is located in Liberia, and is home to many orphaned and abandoned children, who need basic things such as clothing, food, medicine, and beds. Donations to the orphanage go to purchase these items.

Donations to Colton's Angels go to the Festival of Trees and annual Colton Ray Stewart scholarship fund.

Salem Days Quilt Show Raffle

On August 8, 2009 we held a raffle at the Salem Days Quilt Show in Salem, UT. Proceeds from the raffle went toward our Festival of Trees fund. We were able to raise a lot of money thanks to the generosity of the many people who donated. We raffled off 5 quilts and a silk flower arrangement. One of the quilts was designed, pieced, and quilted in memory of Colton.

With the money we raised from the raffle we were able to purchase most of the items needed for our Festival of Trees display. Our tree will be on display at the Festival of Trees in Sandy, UT on December 1st, and is called "Our Guitar Hero". It is Guitar Hero/Rock Band themed, as Colton was a drummer in a local band, the Boneyard Daddies, and was the best Guitar Hero/Rock Band player we knew. The Festival is open to the public starting on the 2nd, and runs until the 5th at the South Towne Expo Center.

To obtain a bid number for the auction on December 1st, contact the Festival. Their number is available under the FAQ on their website.

Colton's Angels Scholarship Award

On May 19, 2009 Colton's Angels awarded our first scholarship. Jase D. of Spanish Fork High School received a $1000 scholarship to use toward the auto mechanic program at Utah Valley University.

The award was presented by Gayle and Angie, Colton's mom. Before presenting the scholarship, Gayle talked about our group, and how we had started Colton's Angels several months after Colton's passing as a way to keep ourselves busy and provide friends and family with some comfort. After about one meeting, we as a group decided to focus our energy and efforts into providing a scholarship in Colton's name for someone who had as much passion for auto mechanics as Colton did, and wanted to pursue it as a career.
