So thankful for the support from the Tom Vallee Branch 93 Fleet Reserve Association. Not only did they present us with a beautiful donation yesterday, they also volunteer at least one Saturday every month to cook a fantastic hot breakfast for our guests. It’s the great people in our community like members of the Fleet Reserve who enable us to feed those in need of a little help. Thank you!

Today we said good-bye to the old Brass Rail horseshoe pavilion. She was old and weak, but in her day, she brought a lot of fun to so many people in this county.
Eventually, we hope to construct a smaller cover to provide shade for our guests when they are using the picnic tables but, in the meantime, we just have the memory.
