Send a Christmas Card
There is a post floating around on Facebook requesting people to send to Walter Reed in Washington, D.C. After further investigation, we cannot send to that location because the cards will be returned to you based on security restrictions. Therefore, I contacted Rich Bauer, who is a veteran, lives in the Lemay area and works with the Missouri State Veteran Home in St. Louis. He contacted our local veteran home and worked with them to accept our cards without rejection. As info, the veterans love receiving hand-made cards from our children.

Support the Christmas Party
There are approximately 275 residents

Most items can be found at the Dollar Store on Lemay Ferry Road near Lindbergh Blvd., and the veteran is very appreciative.
Contact Rich Bauer at [email protected] or 314-416-1899 to pick up your items so they can be distributed into the veteran's gift bag.

The party will be held on Tuesday, December 20, 2016 from 6 - 8 PM so please have all your gifts picked up by noon on December 20, 2016. If it will make it easier for you, we can set up a centralized drop box so you can drop off your gifts while you are out. Just let us know if you have suggestions.

SPECIAL HELP FOR CHRISTMAS PARTY
Help wanted: Cook & Deliver pizzas for party.
UPDATE: Hazel Erby, 1st District County Council is helping
Rich has received 25 cases of frozen pizza (12 pizzas per case) from Lucia Pizza in Fenton, Mo. Although he has sent letters to many pizza companies, none have volunteered to cook and deliver the pizzas for the Christmas party.
Does anyone have any contacts that could help with this effort? Please contact Rich or me.
