Commander’s Comments:
Greeting Comrades!
As we are chilling with the cold, it will not be long before Spring is here once again. A number of projects are happening or have recently been completed. Some members are contributing ideas to make the post better. In all, the post is blooming with activity. Thank you all who have worked to make our post better for our post family.
Monthly dinners are back on and doing good. They are open to our local communities we serve. So, invite a friend or neighbor to join us. Comrades, check out the calendar, come out and enjoy one of our dinners or to take a chance and play one of our raffles or drawings. We have new gaming machines installed at the post now. Check out the delicious drink specials every month. Support your Post and our events.
Reminder that 2025 Range dues are payable by seeing one of the bartenders if you have not as yet. The skeet & claying shooting range is nearing completion with some extra improvements. We are planning to begin Weekly Leagues for skeet shooting. We will be posting signs with the information shortly.
Membership is moving, but we need help in recruiting or getting members current. If you know fellow veteran and meets the criteria, talk to them and invite them to join. Any questions, please see our Membership Service Officer, Dane Glander or one of our officers.
Any questions or concerns about the Post, come to me and we will see what can be done.

CHAPLAINS REPORT
Greetings All,
First, I want to express our condolences to Post Cmdr. Brian Tucker for the loss of his father (a Korean War Veteran and VFW member) in January.
I hope that everyone is doing well. This year seems to be moving fast. It is hard to believe that we are already into March with Spring right around the corner. There are a couple of Military Observances coming up near the end of March. Medal of Honor Day on March 25th and National Vietnam War Veterans Day on March 29th.
On April 4th -6th is the Man Veterans Camp put on by Crossroads Church. It is an outdoors camping weekend with Veterans from all over the US attending. Last year we had military members who are still on active duty to Vietnam Veterans attending. For information visit www.crossroads.net/manveterancamp/Also on May 3rd, 2025 will be the National Day of Service.
Grace and blessing to you and your families,
Chris Novelli, Chaplain
