Members and friends of Galicia Caravan No. 77 volunteered their time Saturday, December 21 entertaining some very special friends at the annual Christmas party for the intellectually disabled. A host of clowns, elves and helpers turned out to serve over 18 tables full of guests. There was food, fun, dancing, presents for the kids and even a token gift of appreciation to the unsung heroes (the aides who work so tirelessly with the clients in the group homes). Santa Claus, a.k.a. Galicia PGC John Kelleher was on hand to present a tote bag of small gifts to each of the guests. As a thank you to the workers, the caravan purchased 10 tickets to the upcoming Saint Francis Camp on the Lake charity fundraising dinner and drew winners from among the volunteers. It’s a simple way Galicia says thank you to the hard-working people they depend for the success of their events.

In the Spring 2018, the St. Francis Camp President Edward Smith presented an idea to the Board of Directors to revitalize the playground area at the Camp in Jerome Michigan. Manresa GC John Vella, Camp Director Tammy Kerchkof and Galicia #77 GC Pat Plotkowski teamed up to explore some ideas for new playground equipment. The ad-hoc committee presented their ideas to the Board. In less than six months, we raised over $60,000 and have already completed the site prep. The equipment will be ordered by the end of the calendar year and will be ready for community build at the camp in May 2019. If you know of anyone that is interested in assisting with the community build, contact Galicia representative: Bob Steinberger, Russ Kreinbring or Pat Plotkowski.
