Now we have yet another reason to thank these incredible veterans. The VFW post #5087 and Antwerp American Legion Post 253 became the first Holly Beach Splash Pad Platinum donors by donating $15,000. When we asked VFW & Legion Trustee Randy Brooks why they donated to the splash pad project he stated, \u201cIt is important to us to use our charitable funds locally first!\u201d Thank you for your generosity, but more importantly thank you for your service. This donation has moved Holly Beach fundraising past the $100,000 mark at $106,000 raised! With an estimated total project cost of $450,000, donations like this have amplified the reality of this project\u2019s inevitable success.
