Our chapter continues to grow. We gained five new members just this week. We are proud that we are making a difference and provide support to our military families as well as our troops and our veterans.  We've also been busy at the airport welcoming our American heroes home-this is by far our favorite thing to do! Our next event will be a giant troop drive at Colonie Center where we plan to fill and ship 500 Holiday Freedom Boxes to our deployed troops. Kickoff will be on Saturday, November 1st at noon at Center Court. Hope you'll be able to stop by! We are honored to be marching in the Grand Marshall's Division of the Albany Veterans Day Parade again this year as we pay tribute to our veterans-past and present. A good weather forecast would make it perfect! Hope to see you there!
