HOLLEY – The Community Free Library was very happy to host a program called “Christmas Cards for Vets” on Veterans Day this past Saturday.
More than 100 people visited the library on Saturday and signed more than 400 cards that will be delivered to the NYS Veterans Home in Batavia and the VA Medical Center in Batavia. Assemblyman Steve Hawley was among the community members who attended and signed cards.
Elected officials from Holley, Murray and Clarendon also signed messages of appreciation for veterans.
Many veterans, and scouts from Troop 59 and 62 also were part of the effort, and so was Holley Police Chief Bob Barton.
Sandra Shaw, library director, thanked the community for their time and heartfelt messages in signing the cards.
