It's January and time again to gather in from the cold. Come to share stories, swap trackables, say "hi" to old friends and meet new ones. The event lasts from 11 AM to 1 PM, plenty of time to eat (if you want) or just to visit.
We'll pass around some Valentines for the residents at the Western Kentucky Veterans Center in Hanson, Kentucky. Anyone who would like can write a message on the cards before we deliver them before February 14th.
As we have at past Share the Love events, we will also collect any donations you would like to send to the Veterans. Donations are not required for logging attendence at the event.
Carol (of KyTravelers) has contacted the Activities Director at the Veterans Center and will get a new list of their wants and needs for 2025. They always enjoy individually-wrapped snack cakes, sugarfree candy, and chocolate, chocolate/peanut butter, and chocolate/caramel candybars - but nothing which is hard to chew or has nuts. They would like 8-ounce, screw-top soft drinks. I'll update other donation ideas in announcements as they are sent to us.
The event is at the same location as the 2024 event - Bar B Que Shack at 4687 Pembroke Road, Hopkinsville, KY. If you're coming from Hopkinsville, take Hwy 41/Pembroke Road toward Pembroke. The restaurant is on the right side of the road with the parking lot turn-in just past the water tower. If you're coming from I-24, take exit 89 and go north on Hwy 115. Turn left on Hwy 41 in Pembroke. The restuarant will be on the left in about 4 miles.
(Last year this event had to be resceduled due to dangerous weather conditions. If this occurs again, I will re-schedule for January 25th from 11 AM to 1 PM at the same location. Keep on eye on this page for announcements if you suspect that the weather may prevent us from having the event on the 18th.)
