The Women’s Resource Center/Community Support Center would like to thank everyone who was involved in making the 2014 Patriot’s Day Stand Down event here in Dillon a great success.
The event facilitated outreach opportunities to over 300 veterans, connecting them with resources in our state and in our community. Whether getting them signed up for health care, help with writing a claim, housing, jobs, getting a haircut, to food and entertainment, our community rallied behind our veterans and showed genuine interest in serving those who serve.
To all of the local businesses who donated items for the raffle and silent auction, all the people involved in organizing the event, and to all of our service men and women, we thank you very much.
Our big winners this year include:
· A guided hunt provided by Mr. Bill Kemph of Montana Bucks and Ducks & Mr. Cal Erb, with special thanks to landowners Cal and Brooke Erb.
Winner – Jaydee Poirier of Twin Bridges
· A guided fly fishing trip provided by Jon and Brad at Anderson & Platt Outfitters.
Winner – Don Kennedy of Dillon
Special thanks to Mr. Kennedy for choosing to donate his trip to a couple of young veterans who’ve never had the chance to experience a float trip.
· Ray Honey of Dillon won a great Kershaw knife provided by Gary Hoggatt at NAPA in addition to a chance to win a fully outfitted rifle package. Good Luck Ray!
