Mrs. Sena Rider Honored with Lifetime Presidential Volunteer Service Award
We are proud to announce that Mrs. Sena Rider has received the Lifetime Presidential Volunteer Service Award for dedicating over 4,000 volunteer hours to her community. Her selfless service spans more than a decade, from leading her local PTA and volunteering in classrooms to serving as a Sunday school teacher and small group leader. She has donated platelets 24 times at the Red Cross, played a vital role in encampments and schoolhouses, and now serves as a location coordinator for Wreaths Across America. Her unwavering dedication is an inspiration to us all. Congratulations, Mrs. Rider!
Honoring Heroes at Wreaths Across America
On December 14th, our unit had the privilege of participating in the 12th annual Wreaths Across America event at Evergreen Memorial Gardens Cemetery, Funeral Chapel, and Crematory. Together, we laid 1,260 wreaths to honor and remember those who served, including a special tribute to our former Adult Volunteer, Gunny Hudson. We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who donated a wreath to make this meaningful event possible. Stay tuned for details on next year’s wreath sales to continue this tradition of remembrance.
