It was very much appreciated to help veterans. Also a Big Thank you to James Wilhoit, John Houser and Kevin Rose for helping in distributing Poppies. Our unit received 3 Hero Awards from National ALA Children & Youth chairman. They will be presented to three (3) 11 year old girls from Kent for helping save a 6 year old girl from an alleged attempted kidnapping last year at their apartment complex.
