Fifteen people turned out, and the Hearts and Hands Quilt Guild was born. The organization is still going strong, celebrating its 30th anniversary with a dinner June 12 at Bud Murphy’s in Connellsville. Sue Quinn, outreach coordinator for Sen. Pat Stefano, attended the dinner and recognized the guild with a proclamation on the senator’s behalf.

Mt. Pleasant Borough Council voted Monday to approve the sale of a property that went up for public auction earlier in the day. The former Gormley property on West Main Street was sold at auction for the minimum starting bid of $16,000 to Michael Phillips, who had addressed council in April regarding the possibility of purchasing the property. At that time, Phillips told council he planned to open a bakery at 207 W. Main St., next to the property.
