Tuesdays for the Troops

On the anniversary of the devastating terror attacks on the United States, Sail Away Cafe in Afton, Minnesota wants the troops to know that the people of the Lower St. Croix Valley care.

Since February 2012, Sail Away Cafe has been donating proceeds from meals sold every Tuesday from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. to the Yellow Ribbon Alliance Lower St. Croix Valley (YRALSCV). This past Tuesday, September 11, 2012, Sail Away Cafe donated another large check, which brings to the total to $1,000. The Yellow Ribbon Alliance Lower St. Croix Valley is grateful for the ongoing donation and support, which then allows YRALSCV to support other groups such as A Touch of Home (www.atouchofhome.us) a group that packs boxes every month in Woodbury for deployed service members. We hope you stop in for Tuesdays for the Troops sometime.
