Sharing and Caring
Hospitalized Veterans Boat Ride
Plans and preparations
are well under way for this annual event that takes place September 7,
8, 9 ,10 2010.
For those who will be
volunteering at the boat to distribute the duffel bags, you must be at
the upper level of the ramp at 2 PM on those dates.
Mark your calendar:
Volunteers will be needed to pack the bags on Thursday, September 2,
2010 at 9:30 AM at the VFW PENN HILLS, 1160 Milltown Road (across from
the Community Supermarket). THIS IS CRITICAL-----WE NEED YOUR HELP.
Once again we are
appealing for white crew socks as well as sponsors for the Adopt-a-Vet
Program, which helps defray the expense. This provides an opportunity
for "therapeutic recreation" for a veteran to attend the boat ride,
perhaps being the only time they are able to be out of their facility.
You will hear more
about the sock drive from Art Fedele and Don McIlrath.
Sharing and Caring is a non-profit corporation supported by our
all--volunteer staff, and is made possible through the contributions and
efforts of you and others like you.
YOUR SUPPORT IS CRUCIAL: Please mark all these dates and
information on your schedule as this publication will be the "ONLY ONE"
you will receive before the boat ride September 7th thru the10th.
Interested Volunteers for the packing and distribution of bags on
the boat ride days should contact me: Sandy Romanelli at 412 781-1113;
Please leave your name and phone number.
Thank you
in the Spirit of Pioneering.
