Our last event of the calendar year with another great Winter Wanderland in the books! Such a sweet little night with lights, goodies, BigMa's food truck...and thank goodness it was not as cold as it could have been!

Santa was there taking photos and the Grinch were there being mischievous as always!

As we come to the end of 2025, we have to say a big thank you to you all for always coming out and supporting us just by being present! We can't wait for 2026 and what it has in store!

I know, I know....we say this a lot but seriously, this Trunk or Treat was one of our best to date!! You guys showed up and showed out!

We had so many amazing costumes, trunks and chilis to choose from to see who would come out on top!

Winner of the Commander's Cup for best chili went to AtlAtl Afterburn by SSG Chambers of 6th BN!!!

Best Trunk went to the Advisors Tattoo Shop by the Griffiths of 2nd BN!!

We had several costume winners:
Cutest Baby - baby pirate
Best kid costume - Joker
Best Family - The Little Mermaid
Most disturbing - creepy killer guy with a pet rat (we're not even sure what to call it 🤣)

Thank you to everyone who put in a trunk, had a chili for the cookoff, to our volunteers handing out popcorn, hotdogs, and making sure the chili was good to go!! You don't realize what a difference it makes in simply showing up to these events, it shows our work behind the scenes matters!!
