At our Show N’ Shine last Tuesday (for Kool April Nights) we raffled off two cooking classes as a fundraiser for the Wounded Warrior Project. (For more information on how to get involved with this wonderful organization, visit their web page: www.woundedwarriorproject.org) That day we also had a pressure cooking and canning class with Chef Pam. We offered our raffle tickets to the participants and a student in the class, Deborah Baldwin-Pulcini donated and won the raffle! She and husband Joseph Pulcini will be taking a cooking class in the future. Deborah recently visited Disneyland and during the Retiring of the Colors ceremony the crowd was asked if there were any veterans present as they like to honor any vets present. Since Deborah’s “semi-son,” John Joy is in the Air Force in Balad, Iraq, she had the couple’s photo taken with the color guard and posted the it on facebook which is easily visited by the soldiers. We’re happy to report that due to everyone’s generous donations, we are sending the Wounded Warrior Project a check for $100!
