Jeff Dentice (Doc) has been coordinating and running this event since 1988.

But the show would not take place, if it wasn't for his crew of Volunteers.
I am so very proud of all of them for being there for me the past 24 years.

Special Thanks to VA staff members Courtney/Sandi/Sarah/Joyce/Mike/Mike/Al.
You guys are always there for me to make things all come together.

I am truly amazed at the outpouring of support from folks in Wisconsin & beyond.

Doc is talking with the Vets as they wait in the food line.

Hi Doc
I wanted to let you know that the money you donated from the Christmas with the Vets party
has been used towards taking the Veterans out into the community.
I have taken then to the Mitchell Domes, Rock Climbing, and the Boat Show at the State Fair.
It has also been used for the Dom Bowling League parties.
Thank you for caring about our veterans!

Hi Doc and the Christmas with the Vets Crew
 You did it again. I can't thank you and your crew enough for providing, yet another, successful "Christmas with the Vets" on Saturday!
Number 24. You and your volunteers amaze me. The countless hours and months you spend "Doc" on the planning and preparing for this party.
  You are an amazing person with a huge heart.
The Veterans truly appreciated and enjoyed attending the Christmas party that they will never forget.
Thanks for remembering the hospitalized Veterans and making their Christmas brighter.
Thank you, your volunteers and donors. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
