SUMMARY:Order Trees from American Legion Auxiliary 281
DESCRIPTION:Greetings Everyone\, \nIt is that time of year again for the Auxiliary Tree Sale in Mt. Juliet. I have attached the order form for your convenience in ordering your trees. Click Here for your Order Form: https://www.mtjulietalpost281.com/wp-content/uploads/Documents/15th-Annual-Tree-Sale-Order-Form-Single.pdf \nPlease note: There are a few changes to be mindful of. First of all\, we had to schedule the pickup earlier than usual this year\, so it is imperative that you get your order in quickly. The pickup date is Saturday\, March 29\, 2025. We are now taking orders thru March 19\, 2025 with payment due by March 22\, 2025. Please\, no exceptions. \nSecondly\, we had to increase our cost this year to $30.00 per tree. However\, the good news is if you pay by credit card or venmo\, you will not be charged a fee. Of course\, checks are also acceptable. \nThird\, the only refunds we will be issuing this year will be for trees ordered and paid for but not available from our supplier. We ask that you make sure when the trees are loaded into your vehicle that the count is correct. Our helpers will make every effort to load the correct number\, but it is also your responsibility to verify the count. You will not be issued a refund if you get home and find your order was short. \nAll of that being said\, we look forward to supplying you with some great shrubs and trees again this year and hope that you will once again support our Auxiliary fundraiser. As in the past\, some of the funds will be used to send local 11th grade girls to Tennessee Volunteer Girls State (an Auxiliary program designed to empower young women to become great leaders and responsible citizens and to learn about our government and how laws are enacted). Remaining funds will be used to support our Veterans and to promote patriotism in our community in any way we can. \nI will look forward to hearing from you soon. \nSincerely\, \nKathy Leedy \nFund Raising Chairman

SUMMARY:Thanksgiving Day
DESCRIPTION:THANKSGIVING DAY – Fourth Thursday in November \nTHANKSGIVING DAY\nThanksgiving Day is observed each year in the United States on the fourth Thursday in November. The observance is a time when families and friends gather and give thanks for many reasons\, each often as different as each person who gathers around the table.  \nIn 1621\, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast that many acknowledge today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. For more than two centuries\, days of thanksgiving were celebrated by individual colonies and states. However\, it wasn’t until 1863\, amid the Civil War\, that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiving Day to be held each November. \nHow to Observe Thanksgiving\nIn many American households\, the Thanksgiving celebration has lost much of its original religious significance; instead\, it now centers on cooking and sharing a bountiful meal with family and friends. The pilgrims may not have even served turkey that fateful day in 1621. Today\, however\, the bird is so ubiquitous\, it has become synonymous with the holiday. In fact\, nearly 90 percent of Americans eat the bird—whether roasted\, baked or deep-fried—on Thanksgiving\, according to the National Turkey Federation. Other traditional foods include stuffing\, mashed potatoes\, cranberry sauce\, and pumpkin pie. Another common Thanksgiving tradition is volunteering to ensure everyone has a meal on the big day. Some communities often host food drives and free dinners for the less fortunate.
