Thanks to our Wisconsin
2007 Veterans Org's help!


 
 


 
 

Thank you so much for all the work you do to help our veterans to have a more Merry Christmas.
Luckily when my husband returned home last year he was in one piece, though we are still dealing with the aftermath of war.
God bless you and all of your helpers for helping those who have so couragously fought for our country.

I have mentioned to the Chorus members of the upcoming Christmas program at the

THANKS FROM DOC
2007

All the  Vets & Patriotic people from Racine-Kenosha-Janesville-Oshkosh-Sheboygan and cities and towns
all across Wisconsin & indiana for making the trip to Milwaukee to help our Veterans, enjoy
the Holiday festivities at the Zablocki VA Hospital.

You had to have been there to see the faces of the Veterans as they listened to Legion of
Song sing Holiday & Patriotic songs. When they all received a door prize and as
Bingo was played and most won some money . They all remained, for
the Holiday treats that lined the tables along with juice-coffee-milk-soda.
All the wards were brought a cart ful of these special home made goods.


 











I WANT TO SAY
THANKS
FOR YOUR DONATION'S AND CARING
19th Annual is Great Success
We were able to give cookies and treats to 160 Vet's at the party as well as getting platters of treats to all floors and hopefully all Vets
who could not attend. Every Veteran that attended the party received some kind of door prize. We further were able to give out over
$1500.00 in Bingo money. That may not seem like much to some but for some of these
Veteran's it's more money then they see in a year, that can be spent as they wish.
Again thank you for your support and we hope to see your generosity again next year.
