Spotlight Cookies N' Dreams PRESENTING North Farmington Band & Orchestra Boosters 12th Annual `HOLIDAY ARTS & CRAFTS SHOW" A delectable event raises funds for children with cancer. Sat. Nov. 23rd, 2002 • 9 am to 4pm CARLA JEAN SCHWARTZ Local Columnist U 13 Mile Road I 'm on cookie overload. I've tasted more cookies than you can imagine. But it's for a good cause. I was recently a "celebri- ty judge" for the "Cookies N' Dreams" event held at the Somerset Collection in Troy, where 8,000 cookies were consumed. This fourth annual benefit of the Michigan Chapter Friends of Camp Mak-A-Dream raised more than $90,000 to send children with cancer to a camp in Montana. Harry and Sylvia Granader of Beverly Hills, Mich., are the founders who donated 87 acres of their Montana ranch to make this camp possible. Cathy and Nate Forbes and Kathy Broock Ballard were the event co-chairs.
