Military Support Committee Needs Your Help In Making Giant Lei for USS McClusky.
Members of our Military Support Committee could use the community’s help in making a giant 100 foot Welcome Home Lei for our City’s adopted ship, the USS McClusky.
The USS McClusky is scheduled to return home in April after a 6-month deployment and it has been a tradition for the ship to drape the lei over its bow as it pulls into port, signaling its return home.
“It is a very heart-warming sight to see the lei hanging over the bow of the ship. You feel a great sense of patriotic pride knowing you had a hand in its creation” said MSC Member Carole Allen who coordinated the previous Lei-making effort.
If you are interested in lending a helping hand, the Lei making crew will be meeting at Sea Country Senior and Community Center, 24602 Aliso Creek (corner of Moulton and Aliso Creek) on the following dates:
Monday, March 8, 15 & 29 From 6:30 – 8:30 pm
Saturday, March 6, 13 & 20 From 8:00 – 11:00 am
If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact Carole Allen at (949) 922-0011 or via email at Carolealln8@aol.com.
