Waynesboro First Aid Crew Auxiliary Submitted by CeCe McCormick, WFAC Auxiliary Historian Hello everyone from the Auxiliary of Waynesboro First Aid Crew. We have been a little busy in September with several of our members helping to pack food for the “Rise Against Hunger” campaign sponsored by several local churches. They packed over 10,000 meals in two hours. Great job! On September 11th we displayed our 911 wreath “Never forgotten.“ The week before convention, we had one fundraiser for the Kawana Club. We also updated our bylaws and rules for the multipurpose room. At the AVAVRS Convention, all of our members got to attend. We had a great time, even with some of the events being canceled due to bad weather. During the AVAVRS awards, Waynesboro Auxiliary received First Place in the Western District for attendance, Second Place Award for our scrapbook and, and a very special award for Outstanding Service was given to our Historian-Cece McCormick. During our extra time, the members that did not leave due to the bad weather gathered in the hotels big lobby. We enjoyed playing games and eating pizza. We had a great time. Hope to see everyone next year. In October, we had our last spaghetti carryout meal for the year and are planning to have the first one in May of 2024. We made up Halloween candy bags for our Springdale Bingo Group, our 911 dispatchers and our duty squad. In November, we attended the Western District Meeting in Broadway. Two of our members are holding district offices. We received First Place for submitting pictures. It was nice seeing everyone. In December we had two Christmas banquets. We set a cut off date on fundraising in the middle of the month. We are planned our Christmas party for December 17th and we will have updated information in our next article. This is going to be a very special party for three of our members. Everyone have a very merry Christmas and a happy and safe new year bring on 2024 from our Auxiliary to yours, God bless.
