The Gilmanton Police Relief Association has received a handmade
84x84 quilt made by Animal Control Officer Victoria

their barn and home in March 2014 due to a tragic fire. The
Gilmanton Police Relief Association also made a monetary donation to
help the family during these hard times.

said, “It’s terrible this family lost their home. It’s nice to be
able help even if it’s something small.” The Gilmanton Police Relief
Association was started in 2007 to help community members in need.
