Letter
from your House Committee Chairman
Good Morning Rocket post,
We had
our House Committee Meeting last night 15 July 2020 and discussed some options
for the short term. I do wish more of you would have attended but I understand
some of you have concerns about the corona virus.
Real
quick, this Friday, tomorrow 17 July 2020 we will not have a dinner because we
just do not have the volunteers for the kitchen. Hopefully we can get this
worked out by next Friday but we will have to play it by ear.
As you
all know we have been shut down and so have the Legions and Am vets but
hopefully our state representatives get this ironed out in the next few days
and we can get back to being open for our members and their families. Continued
patience is greatly appreciated.
Speaking
of kitchen help! We need some of you to step up and help out in the kitchen. We
have a lot of members that travel during this time of the year and we have a
lot of members that have underlying medical conditions that prevent them from
coming out right now so I ask each of you to see what you can do in an attempt
to help us out on Friday nights.
For
Friday nights when we do open for our dinners be it to go or dine in, we will
need a volunteer to help wash dishes. This is a job that we normally pay for
but since we are not using plates and silverware it is not cost effective but
we cannot expect out volunteers that are working from 4 pm till 7:30 PM getting
the orders out to clean the pots and pans. So! Who wants to volunteer to wash
some dishes??
Buddy
Poppies! We are in need of someone to take over as our Buddy Poppy chairman. Reach
out to Commander Kelley, myself or anyone on the board so we can get the ball
rolling.
As with
everything I write I ask each of you to spread the word as we have members that
do not get on Facebook or the web page. Communication is key. BE safe, Take
care of each other and check on each other. Call if you need anything.
