At the Grand Opening of the Meeting House at Patriots’ Hall of Dripping Springs last week, John Paul reminisced about his time in the Navy on the USS Hornet. He talked about lessons he learned in the military and how people put faith in him as a young seaman in a way that made him believe he was capable. He talked about how important it is to care for those who have served defending our country. We then got to meet other servicemen and women in Central Texas who are helping build the community that will make Patriots’ Hall a place for veterans of all military branches to gather with their families.
The visit also got us excited for the rest of the property. The meeting hall John Paul donated will be home to VFW Post 2933 and other gatherings, but there is a larger meeting hall on the way as well as a wellness clinic and plans for a garden and equine therapy.
We are so glad these vets now have a place to gather and call their own. And thanks so much to all the other supporters and in-kind donors who helped make this space a reality!
