It was a very long day but a very good day. We started at 5 a.m. Well that’s when the alarm went off! We arrived at the Convoy site and started getting ready for the volunteers and guests. Final fencing had to be readied and instructions had to be given, volunteers had to be assigned and inflatables had to be inflated. Then the guests started arriving. By the end of the day we had seen over 2800 guests come through and 668 volunteers had treated them as “guests of honors.” The Hershey characters were on site all day giving out candy and posing for pictures with the kids and me! Hot dogs, chips and drinks were served, medical exams were done, massages were given, lots of give-a-ways were given, haircuts were done, and the guests left with bags overflowing with groceries.
Over 100 guests gave their hearts to the Lord making all the hard work more than worth it. When good things like that happen you think, Okay, that’s why we do it.
All in all a very good day.
Meet my friends...
