It's almost spring!!!


For those of you who were able to see or take part in our 2023 Wreath Delivery Escort Parade and our WAA event, you know that we had an extremely successful year.  It would be impossible to name and thank each and every one of you that make these events as great as they are.  Our helpers, our sponsors, our businesses our residents are the BEST!

To even add to what a great year it was, take a peek at our 2024 goal totals already.  This number tell you just how much hard work goes into these days and how well you, our community, love our Veterans.

Enjoy year spring and summer and I'll be back in touch in the fall to do it all over again.


Thank You- Dave
