Let me know if you have questions. Earl Havens 392-8677 (Post Home) 650-2567 (cell) Commander CommentsComrades, 2011 has been a great year for our post in which we supported countless Veteran activities and support our local Soldiers. I do not want to forget our community services in which Joe Barbosa and his team did an outstanding job with the Voice of Democracy, Patriots Pen and Teacher of the Year, all of which the team scrutinized over 160 applicants from our local schools. We are also moving the traditional VFW bingo nights to the Knights of Columbus (KoC) in Security. Of course next year will not slow down for Veteran activities, so check out the website for our events. Also, some additional 2012 promises, we are putting together a Men’s Auxiliary group, so if this sounds interesting we will be looking for leadership and new Men’s Auxiliary members. Swing by the Post or shoot me an email with new member’s names.
