Table Topic

At the Open House for the Charles Family SmartHome in Longmont on May 26, Imagine! staff created a “Wish List,” including a new dining room table. The existing table was not a good fit for the heights of the different wheelchairs used by the six residents of the home.

But over the weekend, past Imagine! Foundation president Leona Stoecker was visiting the new Fabulous Finds Upscale Consignment store at Airport and Nelson Roads in Longmont and saw a beautiful cherry table top with no legs.

The value was about $1,500, but when owner Jill Cutler heard of the need at the SmartHome, she donated the table top. Then Leona got her friend Bob Sarchet to donate the lumber and his time and make a base for the table top. Voila! A lovely new perfectly-sized dining table for the SmartHome is on its way!

Thanks to all involved in this collaborative project!
