New Cumberland Riders make tasty donation to the Lebanon VA

During the Rider's off-season, the New Cumberland Chapter 143 Riders had a breakfast the first Saturday of the month with the proceeds being used to support local Veterans.

In the month of April, they do a little something extra to support a local Girl Scout Troop and their cookie drive. Local Girl Scout Troop 11419 sets up a stand within the New Cumberland Post to sell their cookies. In order to stimulate sales, the young ladies let the customers know that the Chapter 143 Riders will match what the young ladies sell during the breakfast and send the cookies to the Lebanon VA.

Well, the Girl Scouts were hustling and were able to sell 216 boxes of cookies and the Riders purchased 216 boxes for the residents at the Lebanon VA. The Riders would like to thank Girl Scout Troop 11419 and their patrons for making the event such a success. The Riders would also like to thank the Legion's VA Representative Tracie Seiders for attending and transporting the donation to the VA. Tracie assured us that the residents would greatly appreciate the donation.
