FROM THE COMMANDER …
I seemed to use up a lot of space the last time I wrote to you, so I’ll make it real quick this time.
First off, we’ll soon be entering my favorite time of year, Autumn. That means that the weather should start cooling and the real colder stuff won’t be far behind. That means all of you Scouts out there (and those of you who never were Scouts) need to get prepared!
Second, We’ve got a busy fall ahead of us and in the next few weeks we’ll be busy with a Breakfast and our fall Booyah the following weekend. On Friday, September 13, we’ll be cutting vegetables and then on Saturday, September 14, we’ll be cooking and serving the Booyah. If you can help out in the Kitchen, we’d appreciate it very much. Bring a sharp knife if you have one. Then, in October, we’ll be holding our first in a long time “Meat Raffle”!
After that, we’ll be gearing up for the winter and that means our Kids Christmas party. Then the winter slumber until we pick it back up in the spring. So, let me thank all of you for what you do to make the post better. All your hard work is beginning to pay off and I’m happy to report that one goal has been accomplished, the AC system has been updated and is functioning. Now, on the next project: the parking lot!
Commander Bill Kaczmarek
FROM THE AUXILIARY PRESIDENT … Welcome Autumn!
