AARP Chapter 1100 participates in 2022 Black Forest Festival
BLACK FOREST • The Black Forest AARP Chapter 1100 had a successful day with its booth at the Black Forest Festival, held Aug. 13.
Attendees enjoyed the nice day and visited the many vendor tents, which included the AARP Chapter 1100 booth. There, many attendees took literature and others gave generous donations for the cookies, house plants, chilled water, frozen pops, and other items that were made availables. The money that was collected will be donated to a charity in the local area.
