In a heartwarming initiative, the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) is hosting a gingerbread house-building event aimed at bringing families together in the festive spirit. This special gathering will take place in Venice during the holiday season, offering parents and children an opportunity to engage in a creative and enjoyable activity.
The event invites families from the local community to participate in crafting their own gingerbread houses. Scheduled for December 9, 2023, the activity aims to foster a sense of togetherness and celebration during this joyful time of the year. Participants will be provided with materials, including gingerbread kits, icing, and various decorations to bring their sugary structures to life.
According to a spokesperson from the VFW, this event is not just about building gingerbread houses; it is also about creating lasting memories. “We want families to enjoy the holiday spirit while engaging in a fun, hands-on activity that promotes creativity and bonding,” the spokesperson stated.
The event is expected to attract a significant number of families, emphasizing the importance of community involvement during the holiday season. With festive music and refreshments, the atmosphere will be both cheerful and inviting. This initiative aligns with the VFW’s mission to support and strengthen community ties, particularly during times of celebration.
As families gather to showcase their artistic skills, there will also be prizes for the most creatively designed gingerbread houses. This element of friendly competition is sure to add excitement to the day, encouraging participants to think outside the box and unleash their imaginations.
For those interested in joining the fun, registration is open until December 1, 2023. Families can sign up through the VFW’s local chapter website or by contacting them directly. The event promises to be a delightful way to kick off the holiday season, making it an occasion not to be missed.
The VFW encourages all families in the Venice area to come together for this festive event, celebrating the spirit of the holidays while supporting a local organization committed to serving veterans and their families.
