HONOR FLIGHT #23 — May 6-8

The next honor flight on May 6-8 will take 23 WWII and 2 Korean War veterans on an all-expense paid trip from the Tucson International Airport to Washington D.C. to explore the WWII Memorial, Korean War Memorial and Vietnam wall built in their honor. The day’s focus is about thanking our veterans for the service and sacrifice they made so many years ago for the freedoms we enjoy today. Flight times will be available at a later date.

• We are requesting letters of thanks for their service to be distributed during Mail Call on the return flight.
• Here is the «LIST» of veterans names for letter writing. (One change from last week’s posted list.)
• You may bring your letters to the April 24 program or drop off to Kay Robinson at 898 N. Kenneth Drive «map» by April 24. Please do not seal the envelopes.
• Patriotic lap quilts will also be presented to each veteran upon their return. Are you a quilter and wish to contribute? Donated lap quilts may be dropped off to Kay at her home or you may bring them to the April 24 program. 

The Shoppes at La Posada will host their 4th annual outdoor concert to benefit Honor Flight Southern Arizona on Saturday, April 1. The Concert starts at noon and plays on until 2:00 p.m. Please mark your calendars for these special dates.

MILITARY BABY SHOWER — Our Tiniest Patriots

We currently have 25 military families and holding! Quail Creek’s unit reps are supporting our efforts and the message of needing donations is spreading. This is such a blessing to our efforts for this wonderful event. Please think about setting aside your loose change (or paper money!) for the baby bottle pass “battle of the buses” on the field trip on March 27. This is always a fun competition between the 2 buses and a plus for the babies savings accounts.

Please remember: if you would like to donate, we have boxes in the «Madera Clubhouse» lobby and at Pam Rodgers front porch (2640 E Sawyer Road). «map»

Our next planning meeting is Wednesday March 29 at 1:00 p.m. in the Kino Conference Room.
