Post Dispatch: November 2017

From the Commander:

I would like to start by thanking everyone for their patience as we work to transition our newsletter to an online edition. All of the committees within the Post are working on putting together a “year in review” to bring everyone up to date on what they have been up to this year.

One of our biggest accomplishments is the opening of the Disabled Veteran Outdoor Dining Area which is at about 90% completion. We look forward to holding a grand opening in the Spring and having our members enjoy the outdoor area and the beautiful Spring weather. If you haven’t been to the Post in a while, please stop in and take a look at our “new look”.

Please make note of our weekly events:

  • Tuesdays – Bingo starts at 5:30
  • Thursdays – Burger Night; Half Pound Prime Rib Burger w/fixings for $8.00. 5:30 – 8 pm
  • **Last Thursday of every month is Rockin’ Wings, our famous wings for $1 each, 5:30 – 8 pm
  • Fridays – Fish Fry, 5:30 – 8 pm

In addition to our regular events, mark your calendars for the following special events:

Saturday, November 4th

  • The Auxiliary will be hosting Tupperware Bingo, 6 – 11 pm
  • The Post will be hosting a Firearms and Vendors Show, 10 am – 3 pm
