The Yaak WomenÕs Club is dedicated to promote the welfare and integrity of the Yaak community as a whole, working together to create a financial base through quilting, crafting and volunteerism to support the Yaak Community Hall and lend support to other worthwhile projects.Ê The Yaak Community Hall was in need of a new wood stove to replace the aging barrel stove, which was quite inefficient.Ê So in this need, the offer was made to Fred and Carol Seton, of the Yaak, to trade a quilt for a wood stove.Ê The bartering trade has now been completed and the wood stove has been installed.Ê Thanks is given to all who helped in achieving and meeting this goal.</p>
