Charity  “THANK YOU”  Cards & Letters

Susquehanna Hometown Days

Dear "Cruisin Buddies" (Pat Stanford),

I would like to thank you and your “Cruisin' Buddies Club” on behalf of the SCDA Events Committee for driving your "Classic Cars" in our Fireman's Parade of July 13, 2007, to kick off our Hometown Days Festival. The Parade was a huge success

and I'm sure the reason for many smiles on the

faces of the spectators were due to the cars when they saw a little bit of yesteryear driving by. It was a wonderful remembrance for me and I thank you all for your participation. The "Cruisin’ Buddies" has made a fan out of me.  I look forward to working with you and the club for next year's parade!

Cordially, Sue Sickles

Just as we are acutely aware of how great the challenges and obstacles are for disadvantaged young people in our community, we are in equal measure aware of the importance of community support to overcome and succeed. Thank You.
