Veterans Visit MGRS at the Maine Mall


 Carl made sure Santa was there to meet each Veteran with a special "Hello and Thank you". 



Maine Mall management made sure they had hot chocolate and chairs to sit down and enjoy the train display and the concert.    

 MGRS presented a large screen TV with a built in Disk Player to the Veterans.  The Mall added a nice set of 48 Classic Movies and all time favorites for them to enjoy. Brian is shown accepting on behalf of the Veterans


Many MGRS members were on hand to meet and greet the Veterans who are also very familiar to us from their summer outings and trail rides at Carl's. 

There was plenty of singing and laughing as everyone enjoyed the music and song.

They were toe tapping and "dancing in the aisles".   There was even requests for more hot chocolate.     






Don Campbell a well known local entertainer put on a great performance especially designed for the Veterans at Christmas time.


Don also served as Master of Ceremonies as well as providing great entertainment.  

The Veterans enjoyed their visit and had a very good time. Thanks to them, the Maine Mall, Don Campbell and Maine Garden Railway Society for putting this all together.  Merry Christmas to all!
