MISSOURI VETERANS HOME TRIVIA NIGHT

The St. Louis Veterans Home Committee is seeking support for veterans who reside at the Missouri Veterans Home-St. Louis for their seventh annual trivia night scheduled for 7 p.m. Feb. 11 at VFW Post 3944, 10815 Midland Blvd., Overland, Mo. The trivia night proceeds go towards home’s “easy access” bus fund. These buses have a ground lift which allows the veterans to drive their mobile units directly into the vehicle. These vehicles, which provide the veterans with freedom and independence, are considered one of the safest and most efficient modes of transportation for anyone who has special needs. If interested in making a donation, signing up a team, or require any further information, please contact Chief Master Sgt. (Ret.) James Pickard at mr.pick@hotmail.com or (618) 560-4236.
