However, before the rains closed in, Steve Pfister (Grounds Chair) coordinated distribution of pine straw throughout the property as well as fresh mulch for the playground. It looks great! Thanks in advance for helping to keep VMCI one of the most beautiful clubs in Dunwoody!

Take a moment and reflect on who you would like to honor if you yourself have not served. A grandfather who served in World War II? An uncle who was drafted after graduation from high school? A great aunt who served as a nurse in Korea? If you wish to honor more than one person, two bows will fit on most mailboxes.

 

The Veterans Bows are $5 and color coded by branch of service: Green for Army, red for Marine Corps, dark blue for Navy or Coast Guard and light blue for Air Force. All bows contain yellow ribbon, the international color for peace.

 

There will be a booth set up to sell Veterans Bows at the Strawberry Festival on June 1^stfrom 10am-1pm. You can also contact Julian Black at770-396-5997to order your bows early.
