  • Quilt Of Valor National Sewing Day

    Quilts of Valor (QOV) National Sew Day is Saturday February 1st.  Waunakee’s local QOV group, Quilting at the Crossroads, is participating in this event to make quilts for veterans and active duty service members. It will be from 10AM-3PM at Crossroads United Methodist Church, 5901 Hogan Rd, Waunakee (lower level, around back). Each year we get together to cut, sew (bring your own machine if possible), iron, fold, piece, quilt and bind Quilts of Valor. You can attend all day or drop in as your schedule permits. Please RSVP to the church, (608) 849-9599 or hello@crossroadswaunakee.org,  so we have enough tables set up. Cash donations or gift cards for fabric are greatly appreciated. QOV is a 501.C(3) nonprofit organization funded by volunteers and donations.

  • Life Line Screening

    Life Line Screening, a leading provider of community-based preventive health screenings, is pleased to offer a preventive health event at Crossroads United Methodist Church on 9/10/2020.  Five screenings will be offered that scan for potential health problems related to: blocked arteries which is a leading cause of stroke; abdominal aortic aneurysms which can lead to a ruptured aorta; hardening of the arteries in the legs which is a strong predictor of heart disease; atrial fibrillation or irregular heart beat which is closely tied to stroke risk; and a bone density screening, for men and women, used to assess the risk of osteoporosis.
