AVU AREA 1 NEWS
AVU Area 1 participated in the National Vietnam Veterans Day on Wednesday, March 29 at the Veterans Memorial Building in Solvang.
Sponsored by the Santa Ynez Valley Outreach and the Cloverlane Foundation in Buellton.
AVU was among several Veteran Organizations who offered information about their services. It was well attended by veterans and their families. There were several dignitaries who spoke including Mark Infanti, Mayor of Solvang and Joan Hartman, Santa Barbara County Supervisor.
We received a generous donation of $1,000 from the Santa Barbara County Veterans Foundation. A commemorative pin was given to our Vietnam Veterans honoring them for their service. A special pin was also given to Vietnam Veterans spouses.
Santa Maria Elks Lodge served hamburgers and hot dogs. Live music was provided by Bill Agin and Territorial Law from the Maverick Saloon in Santa Ynez. See event photos below.
AVU Area 1 participated in the March for Meals event on Friday, March 17, 2023. The event was sponsored by the Santa Ynez Valley Community Outreach and the Cloverlane Foundation in Buellton. 14 members and families enjoyed a 6-mile ride on our AVU float driven by Clettus McDonell, Area 1 Vice President. Everyone enjoyed a delicious buffet lunch, at Maverick Saloon in Santa Ynez, while listening to
Live Music provided by Bill Agin & Territorial Law.
