Hope your Christmas was a great one! Did you get over to Chillas for the turkey and things during coffee hour? Bob, Carol and helping hands did a very good job.

Can’t hardly miss the brass plaque by the front door. Bill Miller, a longtime friend of the association, donated the polish, and Mike Hansson, one of our new members, furnished the elbow grease. Thanks, guys. Can’t remember when it was last cleaned.

You can dance the night away on New Year’s Eve at the American Legion Post 82. Doors at the Legion celebration, at 2316 Oak Street, will be opened at 6 p.m., with party favors, finger food, live music and champagne toast at midnight. A donation of $5 will be collected at the door for all guests who arrive after 8 p.m.

On New Year’s Day mornimg, come over to Chillas Hall and enjoy boiled shrimp, and other goodies. Bob and Carol, and friends, will host. Donations accepted. Doors open at 8 a.m.; see you there!

Be kind to one another, and check in on the sick and housebound and have a Happy and Safe New Year!

Until next time, God Bless America, our troops, the poor, homeless, and hungry.
