\u00a0\"\"Scrappy and Lovely Marie had been together and very much in love many years ago, but due to a few switches on their life journey, unfortunately they were separated until their later years. Happily, recently Scrappy and Lovely Marie found that they were once again in the same town: St. Johns. They desperately wanted to be together again. With the help of their devoted friends, Scrappy proposed to the Lovely Marie and Marie accepted. The wedding plans began!

\nThe years had taken a toll on both Lovely Marie and Scrappy. Although they felt just fine inside, they had many cosmetic problems. Marie is determined to look her best for the wedding. She wanted a facelift which would be very expensive and take a great bit of work, money and materials to restore her to her original beauty. The wedding cannot take place until her facelift has healed. Scrappy also needs a new suit for the occasion. Sadly, Scrappy and Lovely Marie do not have nearly enough money to complete their dream. Would you please support these star-crossed lovers so that they may live happily ever after near the depot in St. Johns? A great fund-raising effort is being started in St. Johns and you can help!
\nPlease send your (tax deductible) donation to Clinton County Arts Council, 215 N. Clinton, St. Johns, MI 49979. Make the check out to Clinton County Arts Council Railway Museum. You can choose to benefit the restoration of the 1902 Sault St. Marie sleeper car, also known as the “Lovely Marie,” and\/or Scrappy the 1904 caboose, formerly on the Grand Trunk Line.
\nThe Clinton County Arts Council is thankful to receive some grant funds from the Michigan Council for Art and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts, but those are for operating expenses rather than historical restoration. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
