Diane DeOropeza, Linda Wolverton and Dale Terrell gave their time Saturday to help students in the Red, White and Blue Community event at First Baptist Church in Eaton Park.
On Saturday, July 14, a typical Florida summer day of hot and humid weather, First Baptist Church of Eaton Park hosted the Red, White and Blue Community Event along with a large number of volunteers.
There was something for everyone who attended. Participants could find many community organizations with pamphlets regarding their services set up in the fellowship hall. Children enjoyed the inflatables like the popular Bouncy Castle. A lunch of hamburgers and hot dogs was provided for those people who had registered for the event.
