At our May meeting last evening, BBQ donated 150 pillowcases to be used by the children at Camp No Worries this June.
Camp No Worries is where children with cancer and their siblings can just be kids for a week every summer.
On behalf of our Outreach Committee,
Berry Basket Quilters presented this beautiful quilt at our April meeting to Lisa Marie Brunner.
Lisa Marie is a proud Gold Star Mother who lost her son,
EN3 Benjamin Alan Brunner, in 2019 while he was serving in the US Navy.
Thank you, Shirley, for your service as President of Berry Basket Quilters for 2021 and 2022!
Berry Basket Quilters had been given this plaque in thanks for the quilts we donated to military members returning from Iraq.
The flag within the shadow box had been flown over Iraq.
Commander Mark Preston agreed to hang this plaque at the VFW since BBQ has no home for it.
Sherry Brown and Shirley Beckett did the presentation. Susan Painting gave a history of the BBQ and our connection to the military.
