AMERICAN LEGION RIDERS OF WILLIAMSTOWN BRING SANTA TO KIDS – There were plenty of smiles and happy faces on the children who live at the Camp Salute Community on Sunday. The American Legion Riders of Williamstown Post 252 escorted Santa on his Sleigh on Sunday afternoon December 2nd. Santa had a sleigh filled with presents that were presented to all the children individually that live in the Camp Salute Community located in Clayton. The children had decorated a tree with beautiful handmade ornaments and there was a plate of homemade cookies and treats for each child to take home. The gifts were donated by the American Legion Williamstown Women’s Auxiliary in partnership with the Glassboro VFW Women’s Auxiliary who also donated all the desserts and $500 for this holiday celebration that was hosted by Paul & Bernadette Blackstock of the People for People Foundation at the new Veterans Resource Center located at the Camp Salute apartment complex.
