Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!
The weather was great and the friends were many. 233 participants signed up for the run. We would like to thank each & every one of you who made the 14th Annual Veterans Run a HUGE success. Through your donations & support over $7,400 was raised to help our veterans in Danville VA hospital and Quincy Veterans Home. Every year...rain or shine we are amazed and overwhelmed by your generosity.
THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!

For the first time in 14 years of poker runs we have had a destination cancel on us. Lucky D in Assumption can't handle it. However the Knotty Pine just across the street has graciously agreed to take on our awesome crowd. Same basic destination just about a hundred feet away. We thank the Knotty Pine for their kindness and opening their doors on such short notice. Cheers to them. Cheers to veterans!
