FROM THE COMMANDER

I want to thank our members for giving me the opportunity to serve as

your Commander for the coming year. We have a great group of officers

who are dedicated to making our Post the Best Legion Post in the state.

We had our Installation of Officers a few weeks ago and I want to thank

the Ladies & Gents for all their hard work in preparing a great buffet

spread for our members and guests.

The first thing I would like to talk to you about, is our need for MORE

VOLUNTEERS to help with our food services - Breakfast, Lunches,

Dinners, Special Functions, etc. We have a few members who seem to be

there all of the time but they are getting tired. Also, I would like to see more

members attending our meetings to add their input and suggestions on how

to continue to make our Post better in all our activities.

We need new bids on the contracts for our janitorial and yard maintenance

services. Please turn in your bid by September 1, 2010.

Congratulations To Our New Officers For 2010-2011

FROM THE 1St VICE COMMENDER

Thanks to all of you who voted me in as your 1st Vice Commander…

I will try and fulfill the obligations required of this position… Membership

is very important since it is what keeps the post going…. I will try to create

incentives to all present members, and with your help, we will be able to

generate many new members and offer them something to look forward to

other than just carrying a card. The new membership year has started as far

as paying your dues. Please do so as soon as possible and become an "Early

Bird". Ask your friends and neighbors, if they are eligible, to become a

member also.


Jerry Hartman
