14 birthdays were celebrated at the Southwestern Veterans home yesterday. It always pulls at our heartstrings when we are thanked over and over for our visits. It shows how volunteers are truly valued by the residents. Anyone that enjoys talking and has some free time should consider a volunteer opportunity, it is one of the most rewarding things you will ever do. We joined the golfers for their putting competition, and while the men do outnumber the women, there are a loyal group of gal pals that always attend. Doris asked at our last get together if I could frame a photo of the women for her, so as to not leave anyone out we presented all of them with their official gal pal golfing photo. Every visit with them is a fun filled experience.

Last night at the Southwestern Veterans Center, was the highly anticipated putting competition, which teams are putting for the coveted trophy’s.

We started off with a pizza party sponsored by Stella, the official mascot of ALA Unit 980 (she ate more than the Vets).

We were so happy to see Don back from the hospital, (he is the amazing artist) and while he wasn’t able to golf, he did enjoy the pizza. Continue to keep him in your prayers. It was a wonderful evening, the laughter rang out of the room, we had some stragglers wander by to see what was going on and they joined in for the pizza.

The ALA Unit 980 & SAL Squad 980 thanks our members Patty Churilla & Terry Churilla for their tireless support & love of our vetetans at Southwestern. We know that these vets appreciate them as much as we do.

One of our long time golfers passed from Southwestern Vetrans Center, James "Jim" Morris, February 20, 1952-March 14 2026. He served in the United States Navey during the Vietnam War. We will miss Jim who never missed a golf date and ] lucky to be included in some of the outings to the American Legion Post #980 Plum Boro, PA.

The loss is tough after getting to know him for all the years we have been volunteering…you become invested in these amazing veterans.

On a lighter note, Becky just loves her hats, so she was proud as a peacock showing off her beret Stella presented her with on her birthday. We have to include Doris also who looks forward to her kisses from Stella.

The American Legion Auxilliary Unit 980's Kids Easter Party was a great time and a great day!

The kids enjoyed donuts and a special Cotton Candy punch just for them, they felt so special with their fancy drink.

They made crafts, played ball, went outside and used their talents to make chalk drawings in the parking lot, chased bubbles and had a egg hunt.

Then they came inside, played with the Easter Bunny, took pictures with the bunny and each child got a prize to take home.

We want to thank all our ALA members who generously volunteered to make this event so fun for the kids and a special thank you to new ALA Unit 980 members Sonjia Westfall & Nora Leubner who planned this great Children's party and thank you to Nora's husband Jesse Leubner SAL Member for also was a big help!
