I had a busy day today. After my men’s fellowship group in the morning I hit the office for a couple of hours then went to the Huntingdon County Airport for a gun raffle that benefited the Mount Union Fire Dept. This has got to be one of the largest gun raffles in the state. They sell 30,000 to 40,000 tickets and people from all over the country attend. The food is good and there are a lot of prizes including ATV’s and a $20,000 cash prize. I then went to a Labor Day weekend party at a friend’s home and then to the American Freedom Concert at Lakemont Park. This is the second year for the concert, which features Ricky Lee and the Mustangs. The event benefits the military men and women now serving and includes local, state and national VFW officers. I spoke to the crowd and later in the show got to sit in on the drums for a number, “Little Pink Houses” by John Mellencamp. I had a good time.
