What Did You Miss?
   
Blood drive with American Red Cross at the Apple Valley American Legion.
 
We have just concluded a very successful blood drive with over 17 members participation. Blood was collected from 43 donors. Thanks to all who donated blood.  The Red Cross said the blood collected will save 129 lives. Wow!  We all owe special thanks to Bill Butler for organizing and promoting the successful American Red Cross blood drive.

What's new this week?

 

 

SPEAKER: Sandy Sullivan

 

TOPIC: My Time with Vince Lombardi and the Green Bay Packers

 

Sandy Sullivan is an author, teacher, businesswoman and motivational speaker who can deliver a rousing account of her experiences while working with Vince Lombardi and the Green Bay Packers. You’ll laugh and you’ll cry when you hear what she has accomplished, what she’s learned, and how and why she survived some very tough years. She encourages others to stay positive and to never give up because “It ain’t’ over til it’s over!” Her book, “Green Bay Love Stories,” has been acknowledged as a significant historical account of the Packers Glory Years and the foreword is written by Packers Hall of Fame great, Paul Hornung.
