Letter To The Editor
Thank You for Old Home Day Support
The members of the American Legion Auxiliary, Ellis-Geddes-Levitt
Unit #102 of Gilmanton would like to thank all of the planners,
workers and sponsors of the 2015 Gilmanton Old Home Day for
continuing to host this wonderful community event.
Visitors to our tables signed our Guest Book and viewed our photos
and history album. We invited input on our Veterans at Rest in
Gilmanton project and hope to follow up for additional information.
Our sincere appreciation to everyone who stopped by and purchased
some of our delicious home-baked goods and took a chance on our
raffle. Richard Knibbs of Gilmanton won our raffled hand-crafted
Raggedy Ann and Andy in their cart.
We welcomed two new members to our Unit during the day and were
encouraged by the strong turn-out of both new and long-term
residents of the community. Your generous support to the Unit
continues to provide assistance to our local Veterans and their
families.
Contact our Unit at P.O. Box 119, Gilmanton, NH or
[email protected] and read more about
our activities at
