Hi all
If you do not have a lifetime National Parks Pass, Veterans can get into all National Parks free with "Veteran" on their drivers license, VA Card or military ID.
Volunteers needed to place flags at the gravesites at the Marana Veterans Cemetery on Friday, May 28th. Let me know if you want to help.
Thank you to the many who have signed up to help drive SCOV Veteran Club member Ed Sanicki's wife Karin to the VA Hospital to visit her husband. Drive share has been suspended since Ed is in a recovery unit that does not allow visitors. I will email for volunteers when I find out Karin can again visit Ed.
Send me a photo of yourself for me to post with the other 48 club members on our website.
