It was attended by 25-30 club members, family, and friends. Our host and hostess opened their home to us and provided fabulous Philly Steak Sandwiches. Thank you so much Barbara and Len! We all had a great time visiting and cheering Army on. Attendee’s brought non-perishable and sundry items for Barbara to send to Greg to pass out to the deployed troops he is with. Barbara notified us yesterday she mailed off FIVE boxes! We hope this makes this holiday season a little more like home for our men and women deployed. As for the game, well we are optimistic for next year! Go Army, Beat Navy!ArmyNavy 79
