Post Commander – Tom Cleveland
Well August is over and what an outstanding month it was. There were so many and varied events taking place that it’s head-spinning. Little did I know just what I had undertaken becoming a Post Commander. The social quarters are returning to pre-Covid days and it’s great to see so many “old” familiar faces in attendance. Thanks to all the members who volunteer their time and energy to make these events happen!

We are currently relying 100% on volunteers for Wednesday dinners and for Friday Grill. The menus and start times for Friday Grill are extremely fluid right now so please be patient as we work to be able to offer something from the kitchen each Friday. Anyone interested in helping out, please see me.

Remember that Early Bird Dues sign up ends September 30th. For faster response on renewal of your 2023 membership, please pay your dues at the Post or mail to the Post at the address shown above.

The rebuild of the North wall by the building is nearing completion, thanks to the quick response of a local contractor. God only knows what might have happened if the old one would have failed because of all the recent heavy rains.

The Annual Post Golf Tournament is fast approaching on Saturday, September 17th. Get your team together and sign up before the 7th so Bob has a count of the number of teams to turn in to the Sierra del Rio course manager to secure the lower rate.

Our long time Finance Officer, Bill Conklin, has been forced to resign that position due to health concerns. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers for a fast and complete recovery. My thanks to you, Bill, for your past dedication to the position. Bob Nellis has volunteered to fill the job for the remainder of Bill’s term.

Remember to stay focused on our mission—serving veterans, their families, and our community.
