Okay I need to apologize for the delay in this post but this group here put in a ton of time and effort to have an AMAZINGLY successful meat raffle last Saturday 4/25 to help out Heroes' Hunt For Veterans. This merry band of do-gooders along with support from our tremendous community raised over $5,000 for a most worthy cause!! Joining in for the cause were great sponsors and hopefully I hit them all.
The list is:

Swing Anytime
Uncle Larry's Rustic Inn
Goeman's Rapid Mart and Uncle Larry's Kitchen
Jersey Mike's Subs
Agave Restaurant

These businesses did it not for recognition but to support those who support them so please continue to do so.
Several of our patrons donated as well. These people understand that neighbor is the first part of "neighborhood bar"
English Steve and his lady friend, Renee Katona, Ryan Checolinski, Joañ Gerken, Christine Schroedl, Brittany Nicole, Aunt Gail, Frank and Debbie, Rooster, Rick and Tracy Schmitt, Joyce Neu, Luanne Berghammer, and some that prefer to remain anonymous.
Big shoutout to our hosts Cheryl and Doodles/ Michael Checolinski. Just shows what a great group of people can do with a team effort!!
Again apologies if anyone was ommitted.
Most importantly thank you to all of the people who came out and spent their hard earned $ to support all of this. God bless. ❤️
