Veterans Day Poppy Drive

Veterans Day Poppy Drive

While we had a successful poppy drive, with 33 members participating, 16 of whom pulled multiple shifts, revenues were down $ 4,400 from Veterans Day 2016. No doubt the cold weather hurt us, but the largest decline was suffered at the Central Market location, where we usually staff three doors, but had only enough volunteers to cover two. Edmonds QFC and Fred Meyer also produced significantly less. We have some work to do come Memorial Day.
