Quakertown Alive! Mixer

A special "Thank You" goes to all our Upper Bucks Businesses, Supporters and Friends that attended the Upper Bucks Chamber of Commerce Mixer on Tuesday evening February, 16th.  The Free Press Building was filled with faces from the Quakertown area.   Qukertown Alive! and the Broad Street Preservationists were prepared to entertain there guests with plenty of food, wine and conversation.  Quakertown Alive! volunteers were excited about their move to the Historical  Free Press Building, they also wanted to talk about what the organization is accomplishing. Teresa Sparacino of Delta development was there to answer any questions regarding the Quakertown Urban Vision Revitalization Plan.  Thanks to Lynn Kraft for  decorating the upstairs theatre in the Free Press Building, another thank you to Tara King, Executive Director of the UBCC along with Tracy Kline, Marketing  Communications Director and Sonja Walker, Administrator Member & Relations Specialists and finally all of Quakertown Alive! volunteers.

Grand Opening of Yarn Shop


logo_for_yarn_shop

Quakertown Alive! Welcomes Juniper Place Yarns, a unique and charming yarn shop, which opened on February 19, 2010 at 9:00 A.M. with a ribbon cutting ceremony.  The shop, located at 132 East Broad Street in Quakertown has a cozy atmosphere for knitters and crocheters. Nina Haldeman is the proprietor and will be offering quality yarns such as Debbie Bliss,
Ella Rae, Great Adirondack to name a few, as well as hard to find tools and patterns. 
Nina carries an extensive collection of bamboo needles in her shop. A little trivia for you... Did you know they are easier to use than the metal needles as they are warmer and more user friendly especially for those who  have arthritis?  Did you know you can also take them on the plane with you when you travel? 
Nina in time will be planning classes focused on knitting and crocheting, host social knitting periods and will encourage charity knitting.
