Spring
at last!
It was a particularly long and cold winter this year, but we still managed to get the Veterans out of the nursing home on many occasions each month (see pages for previous months) ...
And now that the weather is warming up...look out...here we come!

LADIES TEA PARTY AT CITY CAFE A BIG HIT!
The Ladies Tea Party at the City Cafe was just wonderful!
Lots of chattering and laughing and eating some great pie and whatever else they wanted!
The Ladies all wore their Red Hats for the event, too! They looked great in them!
Rich Peoples, VNO Founder, took along the Certificate of Appreciation from the Veterans Home, which one of the ladies presented.
Everyone had a wonderful time, thanks to the generosity and hospitality of the City Cafe - on the square in downtown Murfreesboro, TN!

HANDLEBAR CANCELLED DUE TO HEAVY STORMS!
It's that time of year... when we're subject to thunderstorms, heavy rain and tornadoes. It's just a fact of life.
The main thing is to keep our Veterans safe ... and it's definitely not safe to take them out during storms!
So, we'll definitely be at the Handlebar nxt month...join us if you can!

THE VFW ROCKS!
Come meet up with us some Friday night... and you'll see just exactly why the VFW is a favorite spot
for VetsNiteOut!!
