Hi all
Veteran Club meetings are suspended (June - September) during the summer and will resume the beginning of October. The "Meet & Greet" happy hours at the Views at 3:30 on the first Wednesday of the month social will continue during the summer.
I want to thank club members who have pledged money to cover the cost of the Veteran granite memorial. I will be giving my presentation to the Board on May 28th at 9am asking for their approval to display it in SCOV. If you can attend the board meeting to lend your support, it is in the Activity Center Kiva room at 9am. Please wear your Veteran Club shirt.
I need help on 2 fronts next week...........................Please respond to me ASAP if you are available
