We had some beautiful en- tries this year, and all four Acton Schools were repre- sented as well as entries from the Guides. We are so proud of these kids, es- pecially as four went on to place at the Zone Finals-- earning three seconds and one third place. At Zone Level, they had to com- pete with 10 other Legions in our area.

If not, you are going to miss a good time. The best way we can support our troops is to take care of those recent Vets who find themselves down on their luck and living on the streets. Let's buy some tickets for Frank's raffle start- ing January 1. All the proceeds go to the Le- gion's "Leave the Streets Behind" campaign. I h o p e e v e r y b o d y had a good Christmas. President Graham invites everyone to our annual levee on January first. We look forward to see- ing you all there.
