Sandpiper Aerie #3719 Fraternal Order of Eagles celebrated Veterans Day on November 11th by having a “Buy a Veteran Lunch” BBQ. Members, Families, and Patriotic supporters pre-purchased BBQ lunches for our Veterans on the Bolivar Peninsula Saturday. Eagle Aerie members used 4 BBQ pits to smoke 61 racks of Ribs for over 200 BBQ plates that were served and enjoyed by Veterans, Family, and Friends. Joining the celebration was Texas State Worthy President and Veteran, Les Fullingim from Aerie #3864 in Paris, Texas.
The Ladies Auxiliary added to the celebration by hosting their annual Trade Days and Bake Sale event for Holiday shoppers. Twenty five (25) Vendors set up tables of unique homemade crafts Under the Nest and upstairs in the Coghlan Community Center. The inclement weather did not slow visitors to the Eagles as #3719 enjoyed its largest turnout ever on Veterans Day.
