The Auxiliary Blanket Drive

We dropped off 160 Blankets, 180 cupcakes and 160 Valentine Cards to Clyde Cosper Nursing home in Bonham on Saturday February 10th.   While there, we enjoyed a few Bingo games with the Veterans and served cookies, cracker snacks with decorated water bottles.   

We were overwhelmed with the support we received from the community and from the AFJROTC at Braswell HS, Denton HS, and Ryan HS.  Not only did we meet our goal of being able to gift each Veteran, at Bonham, with a hug in the form of a throw blanket, a signed Valentine, and a decorated cupcake but we collected enough to also do all, but the cupcakes, for the 100 Veteran’s living, at Watkins – Logan Texas State Veterans Home in Tyler, Texas.   So, our efforts touched 260 Veterans in a positive way.   Delivery to Tyler will take place on Tuesday.
