Greetings in the name of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!  I hope you all are enduring the heat wave we’re experiencing.  I visited Bill Fiedler the other day. He’s doing well he’s up and around. He gets around on his scooter.  He is always in good spirits when I visit him.  I hope you have a good Fourth of July celebrating our independence. We have much to be thankful for.

( it was for freedom that Christ set us free ).  Galatians 5:1a

Happy Fourth of July, my friends!  Until next time with Jesus, love and ours for you, Doug and Liz

Greetings Comrades,

I want to wish everyone a happy 4th of July first and foremost.  I hope everyone will have a safe and sane holiday and keep all your fingers…And then remember July27th is the 71st anniversary for the signing of the Armistice for the Korean War.

We are planning on having a Family Dinner night for all the members; especially those who feel all the VFW does is sit around in a bar and tell war stories while smoking unfiltered Camel cigarettes and drinking Jim Beam. The newer VFW needs to cater to a more modern generation of veterans.  We are trying to get more involvement from members and spouses so we are certainly open to any ideas you may have or what you would like the post to do.  While we do have a bar we are still working with the county to get some things fixed in there, so it is not officially open yet.  But keep your fingers crossed and hope for the best.

The Post the Auxiliary are putting on a Barbecue and Tailgate party at the building on the 4th of July.  We are letting people park in the lot for $10.00 to watch the races and later watch the fireworks show.  We will be selling hamburgers and hot dogs, chips plus beer, wine, soda and water.  Come out and support the Post by parking and having a great time at the races and firework show.  (Be advised you cannot take any beer and wine out of the parking lot, and the racetrack will not let you bring anything in…so finish it up and then go to the races.)

And finally, bingo is slowly coming our way as well.  The Auxiliary has been in contact with some folks in Sacramento who have been very helpful with us for setting up the whole deal, they have provided vendor information and operational information.  So keep an eye for that announcement.

Best regards,

Seth Culver

Commander
