VFW Post 7110

Commanders column

Greetings Comrades and Auxiliary members, I want to wish the Post and Auxiliary members a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Years. If you are celebrating with family and friends in both holidays, please be careful if drinking is involved. I would like to thank all those members, who have been very busy with the Holiday events we had so far. Also for attending our flag raising ceremonies in Remembering Commemorate Dates (VPR). The end of the year is closing in, and sharing time with family and friends are a blessing. So let’s keep in mind those service members that are away from their family and friends. To include those who are no longer with us, keep their love ones in prayer.

Recruiting new, reinstated, and unpaid membership is a top priority and VFW Post 7110 is currently at 97 % with 64% retention.
​
During our next general meeting a status report on potential membership will be discussed to post members. Be sure to look at the events calendar for dates and time of upcoming events and programs.
