The residents and staff at Washington Veterans Home had the privilege of showing off their home to the VFW Auxiliary National President, Carla Martinez.
Carla is traveling nationwide, visiting veterans’ homes, and stopped to see us. The Washington State VFW Auxiliary president, Rose Green, coordinated a donation of leather working tools and supplies, which were used to show our guests what our leather working groups look like.
Many of our Local VFW and VFW auxiliary Members joined the Presidents for the day, learning a little about our facility and how to do leatherworking. After touring our home, the group headed across the bay on the foot ferry to tour the Turner Joy.
