As a reminder, the post will be handing out Christmas baskets from 9:00 a.m. till noon on Sunday, December 21. I will be posting a sign-up sheet at the bar for volunteers and volunteers with trucks to help transport the food from Cub Food on Knoxville to the post. I am only looking for five trucks to meet at Cub no later than 7:00 a.m. on the 21st. All other volunteers need to be at the post by 7:15 to help put the baskets together. I look forward to seeing you there.
So far we have raised $2,000 for the baskets with help from the following sponsors:
Peoria Jaycees
Retired Firefighters
Ladies Auxiliary
Abraham Amusement
The
Voelker Family
Bob and Nancy Cone
Dale Jennings
Jerry McGowan
Stacy Bowman
We can still use more donations as the baskets will cost close to $5,000. Donations can be made at the post. Please make checks payable to AMVETS. Thank you.
Joe Sharpe
Finance Officer
