Home Depot, National Guard do some sprucing up to VFW
ROSEBURG, Ore. -- The VFW post in Roseburg received a major gift thanks to the Home Depot and some local National Guard soldiers.
The post was chosen by 'Team Depot' to have a major renovation done on their property.
The fence which surrounds most of the parking lot was rotting, and eventually knocked over during last month's windstorm.
VFW members say they don't know what they would have done without the help. "It would have cost probably between $2,000 and $3,000, and we just didn't have that kind of money," said Post Chaplain Bill Johnson.
Home Depot supplied all of the materials and volunteers from the store, along with the National Guard, are installing it.
Local troops helped tear down the old fence last week.
Other local businesses are donating other materials to fix the parking lot as well.
