Stand Down Poker Run

On 9-11-11 the VFW Post 4305, Men's Auxiliary in Winter Garden, Fl, held a poker run to assist in the Orlando, Fl. VA annual Stand Down. The run was put together in 30 days. We would have been happy to have 20 folks show up, and raise $500.00. The official count was 72 bikes, and over 100 people. We raised $3366.00 Just a tad more than we expected. All of the funds raised will be donated to the Homeless Services Network, which puts on the Stand Down with the VA . We feel that there is no greater cause, than to help those, who have served us. At last years Stand Down, 333 vets were assisted in a one day event. We certainly hope that our donation will make this years event more successful. This was our first function, and we look forward to providing more assistance to our veterans in the future.
