This should be very positive for the Post. I want to personally thank all those who came out and helped repair the picnic shelter. We accomplished something that has been needed for a long time and had some fun doing it. Remember Dec. 13th is the day Charles Batchelor is doing the Christmas boxes, so come out and help if you can; we need people to deliver the boxes. I want to wish all our members a very special, safe and happy holiday season, and may your next year be a great one.Don (Wizard) Posted by: Cordie Dorman - 10/20/08 @ 6:48AM

Thank you, th weekend.st and be as follows:Posted by: Cordie Dorman - 08/01/08 @ 8:01AM As your newly elected Commander I want to assure each of you I will do my very best to make the next year a very productive and positive year. As a Legion family we have some definite challenges facing us over the next year, but if we work together as a team I’m confident we will prevail. We took our first step toward this goal at our regular meeting Monday night July 21 We currently have 436 regular members in our post, however participation is far less than this, please make an effort to attend our meetings, and participate in our activities. If you require assistance attending any Legion event please contact Cordie Dorman the Service Officer to coordinate your individual needs. Respectfully, st. I asked, and received permission from the membership to hold a joint meeting once each quarter with the Ladies Auxiliary, and the Sons of A Legionnaire also attending our regular meeting. To put it simple this will let our right hand know what our left hand is doing instead of all three entities going in different directions, sometimes duplicating the same efforts unnecessarily.Don Causey, Commander 2008-09 Posted by: Cordie Dorman - 07/02/08 @ 6:42AM  |
