After two days, and surpassing the goal of $205,000, the money will be used to cover all the costs of an extra honor flight next year made up exclusively of Purple Heart recipients.

Honor Flight of Northeast Indiana was created solely to honor America’s veterans for all their sacrifices by flying them to Washington, D.C. to reflect at the memorials.

Good morning WOWO! I’m a Fort Wayne resident but currently visiting family in Maryland. I had the winning bid on the Penny Pitch online auction for the spa package with Sol gift card (#273 or 275?). Where can I have someone pick up my item? I’ve received no info.

Thanks for all you do. AMAZING PENNY PITCH, as always
