Another Successful Year for Boots & Bags!
We recently held our annual event, Boots & Bags Luncheon, at the Wyndham Garden of York in April. The room was beautiful, the meal was wonderful, and the guests were phenomenal. The afternoon was grand! This event supports our youth programming consisting of after-school, learning center, and summer day camp. This year, over $20,000 was raised for the youth!
We are blessed for the committee members and staff who make this event possible. A very BIG thank you to our sponsors who continue to believe in the mission of The Salvation Army and desire to change the lives of youth in York County.
This year, we were thrilled to add WellSpan to our lineup of sponsors. Thank you for being our Presenting Sponsor! Our faithful Auction Sponsor, Crime Intervention Alarm, allowed another year of fun and shopping. Collens-Wagner Agency as our Swag Bag sponsor added an exciting touch to the luncheon. Thank you to Harley Davidson, Members 1st Federal Credit Union, RKL LLP, UPMC Pinnacle, First Capital Federal Credit Union, First Capital Fiber, Tom & Joan Norris, and Traditions Bank. Without our sponsors, this event would not be possible!
Thank you to a very own, Norma Escobar, Director of Family Services. She was asked to share her testimony, and she certainly did. The room was filled with admiration and amazement for her faith and how God has been present in her life.
The afternoon would not be nearly as fun without the wonderful Chris Topf, General Manager of Fox43, MCing the event. Thank you for bringing the smiles, laughter, and motivation to raise money each year!
