COMMANDER – Al Norton
Giving is a great feeling! I want to thank the American Legion family members who purchased and wrapped presents for the needy elementary students in T or C. And then what happened? Our family members rallied again to donate and assemble food baskets for families in need, to have a great holiday meal. Again, thank you all and God Bless our American Legion Family!
Now in the New Year it is time to get serious and rally to make our Post a solid unit. We are still in trouble, but I am confident with everyone’s support we can solve our shortfall. Participation in the clubs activities is very important. Your suggestions and or donations will be greatly appreciated.
Finance Officer– Bill Conklin
Due to surgery there is no report this month, Bill will be back better than ever next month.
