Fund-raising & Raffles

2009 Yard Sale

AVVA's yard and bake (MMMMmmmm good) sale was completed this past weekend after several weather related delays. Thanks goes out to the associates for the hard work that was put into the success of this fundraiser. Lots of good stuff was donated and sold to raise money for our outreach to veterans and their families. I saw a 27' boat ...new clothes.......toys ....and even the kitchen sink going away from here. There were steady streams of folks coming out to spend a few bucks on great deals. All said and done this fundraiser represents about 10% of our annual operating budget.

The VVA members were on hand to lend a hand with "old" muscle power.

Flee & Jean........getting directions from the "TOP" Don.

Margaret "The Baker" with a couple of the old muscle guys- Al & Randy.

Jon is doing crowd control, military style.
