We had a great time at the joint Legion VFW Christmas party. We had approximately 65 folks show up including some spouses and children. A special thanks to John Bustard’s son who cooked the turkey and Fred Apgar for bringing the ham. We certainly had a lot more food than we needed. Unfortunately a number of members didn’t make the luncheon which was a shame. It was nice to kick back and find out how things were going with old friends. A special thanks to Carl Kurfess for brewing up a lot of small bottles of liqueur which we raffled off (I didn’t know officers knew how to make bootleg liquor). We also raffle a few bottles of wine that Mike and Cheryl Reagan donated and we raised some funds for our Relief Fund with the proceeds. In addition, we all brought toys and non-perishable food items which went to the Holly House and food bank, respectively. I delivered the toys on Sunday morning and several hundred folks were already in line so the need was great.
