American Legion Auxiliary fashion show, luncheon and raffle: March 9
The women of the American Legion Auxiliary are excited to present their annual fashion show and luncheon fundraiser. The event will be held on March 9 in Clubhouse 2 at 11 a.m.
Carol’s in Old Town Seal Beach will provide the fashions. Lunch will be served, and people can try to win one of the many raffle prizes. Last year, the Auxiliary supported 12 different projects including nursing scholarships to three young women and a young man, several families with children at Christmas, companion dogs, assistance to veterans assimilating back in the workforce, education, and food for homeless veterans through the food pantry at the VA Hospital, plus 63 jackets were given to veterans and their families, to name a few.
It is rewarding to work with these organizations and meet the dedicated staff that works with veterans who have served the country, away from their families and many who come home with physical injuries and/or mental challenges. This event makes it possible for the Auxiliary to make a difference in the lives of many and all LWers are welcome to attend and be part of the Auxiliary’s purpose of “Service, not self.”
Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased for $40 or a table of eight for $300. People can call Rose Marie Sprague at 714-742-8362 to purchase tickets and they will be on sale in Clubhouse 2 at Bingo the first, second and fourth Sundays in January and February.
Tickets sell fast; call and reserve early.
