Operation Second Chance & Tournament of the Kings

This is Cindy McGrew she is the founder of Operation Second Chance.
What is Operation Second Chance you ask?

Operation Second Chance:
~To aid in the recovery and rehabilitation of wounded service men and women.
~To assist in the modification of housing to accommodate disabled veterans.
~To assist the families of wounded service men and women.
~To facilitate the transition of wounded service men and women back into civilian society.
Their web site is http://www.operationsecondchance.org. This group helps soldiers get back on their feet and have been very good to us. The picture of Cindy above is when we went to CA. We went there to promote OSC. Anytime a soldier needs help, OSC will help: a car payment, morage etc. When the soldiers are able to leave the hospital she takes us out to baseball, hockey (go Caps!), basketball games, concerts, circus and dinners. Last Thursday we went to the Tournament of the Kings courtesy of OSC. I'm not sure how many soldiers went, but we were in two buses. We had a blast, Brandon keeps telling me that he wants to go back and see the men fighting. He is going to be really sad when we leave and don't have the opportunity to see and do all these things anymore. If anyone is interested in donating to OSC please check out the web site http://www.operationsecondchance.org.

Getting ready to eat our dinner (with our hands). We were cheering the yellow knight on.
I think that this is the King.

Brandon thought this was pretty cool. We told him that this is what the knight wore years and years ago when they fought.
