Notes from The Editor
State and County Fairs have run their course, the National VFW Convention has come and gone, school has started, and we are now looking forward to the three-day Labor Day weekend. When that concludes, summer will truly be over! But don’t worry, there are enough activities taking place in September to satisfy everyone! The month starts off with the three-day weekend, followed immediately by the Post/Auxiliary meetings on Tuesday, September 3rd. Fall Festival is the big event this month, on September 6,7, & 8. This three-day event will require plenty of volunteers, so please help!
Even though the upcoming weekend is a three-day holiday, PLEASE, take some time out to reflect upon, and honor, all our active-duty troops, who do not have a holiday weekend, and all our veterans.
Please read through the entire newsletter, attend your respective VFW or Auxiliary meetings, and take advantage of the events the VFW/Auxiliary has to offer; come on down and support your organization!
For all you grandparents out there, Sunday, September 8th is your special day - Grandparents’ Day! If possible, make sure to give your grand-kids an extra squeeze, or call them up to say Hi! I know it should be the other way around, but do not wait for that to happen!
