For the fifth year in a row, The Good Ol’ Days House, a private vacation house rental located at 914 Broad Avenue in North Belle Vernon, is inviting residents from all over the Mon Valley to participate in an afternoon of fun decorating handmade valentines for our military Veterans on Sunday, February 9 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m.

| Valentines for Vets |
Attendees can make handmade valentines and messages, to be delivered to local Veterans who are receiving care in our area hospitals. A variety of materials will be available to make the cards, and feel free to donate items or bring your own materials if you want to add a little of your own personality and creativity to the cards. Everyone is invited and refreshments will be provided!
This former family home of five brothers and WWII veterans participated as the hosting site for the annual “Sock It To a Vet” Sock Collection Day, collecting over 810 pairs of socks from local groups and Mon Valley donors on Veterans Day November 2019. The socks were delivered to the Veterans Place of Washington Blvd. in Pittsburgh. Additionally, the annual Christmas Pajama Party Drive has benefited the Domestic Violence Services of Southwestern Pennsylvania with thousands of new pajamas for women and children since 2009. The people of the Mid Mon Valley certainly have big “hearts” and care about those in our area less fortunate.
