The Picnic Sunday June 30 at HYDRO PARK is now over and was a roaring success with over 90 folks in attendance, Legion, VFW, families with kids and friends.  Food was just wonderful and plentiful.  Gotta keep doing this from now on.  VFW folks will be having their picnic in September and all were in agreement to have another joint party, it all went so well and we all had such a great time.  Next one will be just called a "Vet's party" as we unify our forces.

Let the picnic on June 30 begin.  VFW Commander Brad Pierrat gets the grill "seasoned" before the lunch begins as Legion Commander Dick Winn discusses who-knows-what with Chef TJ Boteilho and Jose Solis from the WVC Veteran Knights.  Hamburgers, hot dogs, brats, all  the fixin's.  Pies, cakes, cookies, veggies --and it goes on and on.  Food for an Army (and a Navy and an Air Force and the Marines and the Coast Guard and families and friends.)  Everything went pretty darn good, nearly ran out of chow for the huge crowd.  

MANY more pictures coming.  VFW had a wonderful ceremony presenting 3 Vets with Quilts of Honor, very emotional and the recipients were completely surprised.  Wait until you see these photographs.  Wow.
